NZ First has unveiled a 15-point health policy, shifting focus from treating illness to prevention amid a chronic disease crisis affecting a million Kiwis.
Leader Winston Peters said the plan would prioritise metabolic health, nutrition education and an independent review of dietary guidelines. It also promised informed consent as a core standard, health coaches in general practice and fewer administrative burdens on GPs.
Other pledges included hospital trials of intravenous vitamin C around surgery, easier access to recognised nutrients, vitamin D research, funding for nutritional approaches to mental illness and support for soil health and farm innovation.
Peters argued a small share of the $33 billion health budget spent on prevention could reduce chronic disease and long-term costs.

Good stuff Winnie. Keep it up
Anyone who votes for the thieving scammers: Peters, National, ACT, Lanour, Maoris, and the Greens should be deported from NZ for stupidity!
Kiwis need a change!
The front runner to bring about that change is the Barry Young toting Freedom Party.
It is time NZ voters (YOU dear reader) give Barry the opportunity to stand up in parliament and expose the data condemning the mass murderers: Ardern, Robertson, Verrall, Bloomfield, Peters, and the supporting ACT party (Brooke Van Velden’s sham covid inquiry was another mass murder cover up)!
Only a vote for Freedom stands a chance of delivering justice.
PS. I am not a Freedom member or affiliate, Im a voter looking for a solution to the corruption which has pervaded the NZ parliament.
Try the New Zealand Loyal Party…here’s their Policy Page below, which I have C&P here so that you won’t have to… 🙂

And… the NZ Loyal Party leader’s videos..

I would vote for NZ First if I thought they would actually deliver on these health policies
Im voting NZ First. Winston is a strong leader, and talks common sense. Give him a chance instead of him having to comply with the globalist parties. Then NZ Loyal, and Freedom party.
Talking common sense and delivering on the common sense talk have proven to be polar opposites. I haven’t seen any benefits to the people of NZ yet and Winston has been talking for many years. Our standard of living is declining
Schelly, I know you are not Einstein, but he said: The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
Is repealing section 5 of BORA one of them? thats the root of this problem or has his age brain forgotten that? Because we fucking havent.
Winnie is well practiced and speech making telling people what they want to hear.
But his track record undermines his rhetoric and credibility.
Nothing will change until the fake democracy party politics is changed. Direct Democracy is a viable alternative, and a much better option than more of the same fake democracy.
As other commentators say, time for real change not more of the same. Peters has had 3 years to do any of what he now suggests.
He is just a puppet of the foreign owned/controlled NZ Company Church Parliament. They all are.
We all know what our Achilles heel is in relation to statistics reflected in relation to the consequences of neglect of health
Like with unemployment under achievement crime and prison populace
Moori feature prominently in New Zealand health statistics, often showing higher rates of health conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and mental health issues compared to non-Maori
They also experience significant health inequities, including lower self-rated health and higher levels of psychological distress
Unfortunate for us a liability and never to be an asset
Worse health and lower life expectancy also bedevils European men.
Should we start posting about the evils of white men?
Or would that spoil the government propogandists agenda to distract you from:
1. politicians theft of your wealth,
2. your worse access to health services,
3. the many warnings there will be no money left for your superanuation.
4. Your life expectancy is still lower than it was in 2018
Wondering where your wealth has gone?
