The first useful news: insurance premiums will be lowered by up to 35%.

It is news about health discount-type insurance.

Products that offer discounts on insurance premiums for those who are in good health or consistently manage their health are being launched one after another.

Earlier this month, a non-renewing cancer insurance product was recently released by an insurance company that offers up to a 35% discount on premiums if policyholders maintain non-smoking for over a year and meet standard criteria for blood pressure and body mass index.

Another insurer has newly introduced health insurance that cuts premiums by up to 17% if there is no history of three major chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes.

If you choose the maturity-extended type, you can save up to 31% on premiums.

Even if it's not because of insurance premiums, you know you should definitely take care of your health, right?
