Get heart healthy with help from Lake County General Health District

We're past the onslaught of Resolution Season and still a few months away from beach weather. (With the way this winter is going, one might worry that we'll never see beach weather.)

So what's the incentive to get in shape?

How about being healthy? Living a better (and likely longer) life? Are those reasons attractive enough?

The Lake County General Health District will visit the library on Monday, March 3, and offer tips on how to have a healthier heart.

Their nutritionist will talk about the causes of heart disease and what role diet plays in heart health. They'll also offer examples of heart-healthy diets, like the popular Mediterranean Diet. You can register for the program here.

(If this program sounds familiar, it was originally slated for February; but we had to reschedule it because of this insatiable winter.)

So get healthy, get happy and—if this subject intrigues you—get to the library at 6 p.m. on March 3 for more details.
