Want to read all the past issues of Sweet Life magazine? They’re all here!
For five years, we published a quarterly print magazine of Sweet Life, and distributed it for free around South Africa. It was supported by ads from pharmaceuticals, which is how we could send it for free. Then, in 2016, the laws changed around pharmaceuticals being able to advertise directly to patients, so our advertising dried up. We didn’t want to lose all the information from 20 issues of Sweet Life, so we’ve put it all on our community blog, and below. Choose whether to read it as articles, or download each issue as a PDF.
What is Sweet Life?
