Home Health : Cholesterol Screening
High cholesterol is an issue for many Americans. Did you know that having high cholesterol can increase your risk for heart attack and stroke? There are ways you can help keep your cholesterol under control. Eat foods low in cholesterol and saturated fat, and free of trans fat. Maintain a healthy weight. Get plenty of exercise, which usually means being physically active for 30 minutes most days of the week. It’s hard to manage your cholesterol if you don’t know what your cholesterol levels are. St. John’s Health Connection can help. We’ll offer a cholesterol screening tomorrow in the St. John’s Main Lobby from 8 – 11 a.m. Registration is required, so call Referral One at 625.2000 today to make your appointment.
