Description
Did you know that heart disease is the number one killer of both men and women in the US? You are invited to an interactive and informative workshop to learn tips and tricks to keep your heart as healthy and strong as possible.
This class is for you if:
• Have a family history of heart disease
• Your cholesterol been slowly increasing
• You experience high blood pressure
• Confused about what your lab values mean
• Tired of navigating all the advice on the internet
• Just curious about the latest in heart health research
Join our Cardiac Rehab Dietitian, Lisa Fligor, MS, RDN as we break it all down for you in simple easy to follow terms. WE will discuss a variety of topics including healthy fats, exercise recommendation, sodium intake, sleep needs and stress management techniques. Leave with clarity and direction regarding lifestyle habits that will improve your heart health and leave you feeling confident on how to take control of your health.
We recommend (but don’t require) you bring a recent (in the past 6months) lipid panel to class with you. Talk to your primary care or visit the affordable labs event.
Pre-registration required. Bring a friend or family member for free!
