Join Creek County Literacy Program and Reasor’s Foods for a two-part workshop, All About the Heart. Part 1 is Tuesday, February 6 at 3:00pm and Part 2 is Tuesday, February 13 at 3:00pm. Open to the public, these informative workshops will be held at Creek County Literacy Program, 15 North Poplar Street in Sapulpa.

During the first workshop, Registered Dietitian Sydney Cavero-Egúsquiza will share information on what the heart does, blood pressure and cholesterol. The second workshop offers tips on taking care of your heart, what foods can help prevent heart disease and what physical activity is best for your heart.
“Participants will be able to learn about the basic functions of their heart, lab values that can reflect their heart’s health, and how to best take care of their heart through sustainable lifestyle changes,” shared Cavero-Egúsquiza.

All About the Heart is a health literacy outreach project of Creek County Literacy Program, the Oklahoma Department of Libraries, with funding provided by the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
