CHOLESTEROL SCREENING

 
Cholesterol

The Cholesterol Screening Program is aimed at detecting elevated total cholesterol levels in adults. Participants receive information about their total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and glucose levels. Those with elevated cholesterol or glucose levels are referred to their physician for further evaluation.

CHOLESTEROL LOWER YOUR RISKUsing Preventive Health Block Grant funds, the Health District periodically offers a program to teach people nutrition skills to lower their cholesterol levels. "Cholesterol: Lower Your Risk" is a four part program taught by a registered dietitian that focuses on Healthy eating habits and food preparation. A supermarket tour is featured.
