SEHA Clinics and Abu
Dhabi Public Health Center
launch new “Barakat Al Seha”
wellness book
(ABU DHABI)
-
In collaboration with the
Abu Dhabi Public Health
Center (ADPHC), SEHA
CLINICS, a subsidiary of
PureHealth,
has launched Barakat Al Seha
(Blessings of Health), a
wellbeing and recipe book
developed as part of a
wider, first-of-its-kind
community initiative.
Designed to make healthy
living simpler and more
sustainable for families
across the UAE, the book
blends culturally rooted
recipes, practical wellness
guidance, and evidence-based
lifestyle tips in an
accessible, easy-to-use
format.
Endorsed by
ADPHC and approved by its
SEHHI program, the
initiative supports the UAE
Year of the Community, the
UAE’s National Wellbeing
Strategy 2031. It reflects
PureHealth’s broader mission
to embed health, longevity,
and prevention into daily
life. It also reinforces
SEHA CLINICS’ role as a
neighborhood community
health partner, combining
clinical credibility with
culturally relevant guidance
to bridge the gap between
public health advice and
everyday wellness.
Khadija Al Marashda,
Chief Executive Officer of
SEHA CLINICS, said:
“At SEHA CLINICS, our
mission is rooted in
supporting the health and
longevity of our community. We believe prevention
begins at home – with
informed choices, balanced
meals, and simple changes to
daily routines. Barakat Al
Seha is a practical guide to
living well, blending
trusted nutrition and
wellness insights with
cultural familiarity. More
than a book, it’s part of a
broader movement towards a
healthier future. It gives
families the confidence to
take charge of their health
with guidance they can
trust, grounded in the
culinary traditions and
flavors they know and love.
Barakat Al Seha reflects our
long-term commitment to
health education. We hope it
empowers families to take
small, sustainable steps
that lead to lasting,
meaningful change.”
The book responds to a
growing need for accessible
wellness guidance that is
trustworthy and easy to
apply in everyday life. In a
landscape often crowded with
conflicting health and
wellness advice, Barakat Al
Seha offers a grounded
alternative that blends
clinical insight with
everyday relevance to
support families in making
informed lifestyle choices.
His Excellency
Dr Rashed Al Suwaidi,
Director General of Abu
Dhabi Public Health Centre
(ADPHC), said:
“Interest in nutrition
labelling in food menus and
products is growing, as it
plays a vital role in
guiding consumers towards
healthier food choices and
in preventing diet-related
non-communicable diseases.
At ADPHC, our mission is to
enhance the physical,
mental, and social
well-being of Abu Dhabi’s
community by promoting
prevention and early
detection. Through our SEHHI
(healthy in Arabic) Program,
we offer an easy way for the
public to identify healthier
food options. Foods that
meet the program’s criteria
display the SEHHI logo,
helping consumers make
informed choices when
ordering food from
restaurants and food
establishments. We are proud
to mark a new milestone for
the SEHHI Program with the
launch of the Barakat Al
Seha book by SEHA CLINICS,
which has been approved
under the program.”
Barakat Al Seha, developed
by PureHealth employees with
the oversight of licensed
dietitians, promotes healthy
living by providing
practical guidance. It
features halal-compliant,
Emirati-inspired recipes
alongside tips on movement,
mental wellbeing, and
sustainable daily habits –
all designed for real-life
use. The book is also
embedded into SEHA CLINICS’
primary care model, with
opportunities for patients
to follow up with nutrition
and mental well-being
consultations.
Printed copies of the book
are now being distributed
through SEHA CLINICS,
schools, government
platforms, and community
events across Abu Dhabi and
Al Ain.
Barakat Al
Seha is part of PureHealth’s
broader ambition to reshape
healthcare as a driver of
healthy longevity and
national wellbeing –
supporting the UAE’s vision
for more nutritious, more
connected communities during
the Year of the Community
and beyond.
