  • 2/23 Register for the Become More Heart Smart Webinar

    Tomorrow, Thursday, February 23rd 2023, 12:00pm - 1:00pm 

    In honor of National Heart Health Month, join Human Resources & Deer Oaks for this informative webinar on how to lead a life with a healthy heart.

    Heart disease is often avoidable. Following a heart-healthy lifestyle doesn't have to be complicated, and it doesn't mean you need to live a life of self-deprivation. Instead, find ways to incorporate heart-healthy habits into your lifestyle —and you may well enjoy a healthier life for years to come.

    Join this session to become more heart smart and adopt a more heart healthy lifestyle: 

    • Learn about the different types of heart diseases
    • Understand why you get it and what increases your risk
    • Understand the impact of risk factors like obesity, physical inactivity, smoking, alcohol consumption and diabetes
    • Learn prevention strategies to reduce your risk and control cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar.
