Fortune Rice Bran Oil organised a walkathon at Hatirjheel in Dhaka on 3 October to mark World Heart Day 2026, seeking to raise awareness about heart health and encourage regular walking as part of an active lifestyle.
The event, titled “Walk for Heart”, brought together consumers, professionals, influencers and community members, the brand said in a press release. The initiative encouraged participants to make regular walking a simple part of their daily routine to stay physically active.
Fortune Rice Bran Oil also used the event to promote the inclusion of rice bran oil in everyday cooking as part of what it described as a balanced, heart-conscious lifestyle.
The brand highlighted the oil’s naturally occurring gamma-oryzanol content and said it can play a role in supporting healthy cholesterol levels when used as part of a balanced diet.
Through the walkathon, Fortune Rice Bran Oil encouraged consumers to walk regularly, eat healthily, stay active and take care of their heart.
