An important initiative for disease prevention will take place on Friday, November 29, in Lonato del Garda, thanks to the collaboration between ASST del Garda and the Lions Club. From 2 PM to 6 PM, at the North entrance of the shopping center, the event titled “Am I at Risk? Epidemiology and Prevention of Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Diseases and Diabetes” will be held. Doctors from the Desenzano hospital will be available to assist participants in assessing their cardiovascular risk using an innovative tool developed by the National Institute of Health.
Additionally, Family and Community Nurses from the Garda District will provide informational support on healthy lifestyles, promoting behaviors that can help reduce the risks associated with chronic diseases such as heart attacks, strokes, and diabetes. In conjunction with World Diabetes Day, participants will also have the opportunity to calculate their risk of developing type 2 diabetes through a simple questionnaire in collaboration with the Diabetes Association of the Province of Brescia.
