Experiencing extreme heat during pregnancy is linked to higher risks for babies, including preterm birth, stillbirth, and low birth weight. Pregnant women may also face higher risks of high blood pressure. Children also can become ill during extreme heat.

WHO, WMO, UNICEF and UNFPA have identified key indicators to help countries spot these risks using data they already collect — such as preterm births, clinic visits, deaths and school attendance — alongside heat exposure data.

Measuring the health impacts of heat means, we can act sooner to protect those most at risk.

The Philippines continues to face the triple burden of malnutrition, highlighting the need for multisectoral action to promote healthier food environments and improve access to nutritious foods.

In an interview with Atty. Migs Nograles on Public Matters, aired on October 16, 2026, National Nutrition Council (NNC) Executive Director IV Rodley Desmond Daniel M. Carza encouraged Filipinos to follow the Pinggang Pinoy® food guide and register with their primary care providers to access government health and nutrition services. He also recognized Barangay Nutrition Scholars (BNSs) as heroes of public health nutrition and called on local government units (LGUs) to champion nutrition, with the NNC ready to provide technical assistance and support.

Through the Philippine Plan of Action for Nutrition (PPAN) 2023–2028, the NNC continues to work with partners toward Nutrisyong Sapat Para sa Lahat!

19 October 2026, Cagayan de Oro City – Regional leaders of the Nutrition Action Officers Association of the Philippines Northern Mindanao (NAOPA NM) Inc. held their second semestral meeting last 9 October 2026 at De Luxe Hotel, this city. Presided by City Nutrition Action Officer Hazel P. Dondonayos, Chapter President, eight (8) other officers and representatives discussed remaining priorities for CY 2026, and further ways forward for CY 2027.

Among the line items discussed was the creation of a Technical Working Group tasked to revise the position papers on institutionalizing plantilla position for NAOs and strengthening the Barangay Nutrition Scholars Program. These position papers will further the advocacy of the regional associations in Northern Mindanao for stronger local nutrition programs and service providers.

The group also discussed their current financial status, following the conduct of the 2026 Regional NAOs Conference and General Assembly last 19-20 August 2026. Having elected a new chapter treasurer, the NAOPA NM Inc. will proceed to coordinate with their bookkeeper to comply with reportorial documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Bureau of Internal Revenue and bank of choice for opening of their account.

Aside from completing the position papers and financial requirements, the association will also conduct an outreach activity within the year in El Salvador City as part of their corporate social responsibility.

For CY 2027, the officers will pursue its second region-wide Nutrition Forum and Fun Run in Cagayan de Oro City after its successful launching in 2025. This will be opened to Provincial, City, Municipal and Barangay nutrition workers and running enthusiasts. Meanwhile, the annual NAOs Conference and General Assembly is set to happen in April 2027 in Camiguin Province, and a Benchmarking activity to a performing NAOPA regional association is being considered by fourth quarter in 2027.

The National Nutrition Council Regional Nutrition Office X remains committed in assisting the association through technical support and capacity development for more responsive and competent NAOs across Northern Mindanao.

PROTEKTAHAN ANG SARILI LABAN SA MATINDING INIT!

Ang El Niño ay nangyayari kapag umiinit ang malaking bahagi ng Karagatang Pasipiko. Dahil dito, mas mainit ang panahon at mas kaunti ang ulan sa loob ng ilang buwan. May ulan pa rin, pero hindi ito kasing dalas ng karaniwan.

Kung may makitang palatandaan ng heat stroke, tumawag agad sa National Emergency Hotline 911 o dalhin sa pinakamalapit na health facility sa inyong lugar.
