A group of medical professionals is calling for the Government to implement just five key actions in order to dramatically improve the nation's wellbeing.

In a piece published in the New Zealand medical journal, five health professionals are asking the Government to consider making changes to various taxes, advertising standards and regulations, which they argue would make a serious impact on the country's health outcomes.

The communications lead at Hapai te Hauora, Emma Espiner, is one of those who've penned the publication and she spoke to Māni Dunlop.
