Fighting for Healthier Lives, One Lecture at a Time When it comes to staying healthy, knowledge is power. The more you know about ways to protect your body, the better your chances of maintaining lifelong health will be. That’s why Texas Health established the Advances in Medicine series. These events are open to the community and feature Texas Health physicians who speak on health topics that matter to you. From informing you about the area’s latest health innovations to ways you can avoid serious health concerns, each lecture presents vital information to enable you to protect your health. The series also educates the community about key clinical advances that enable physicians on the Texas Health hospital medical staffs to offer quality care. For more information about free upcoming lectures at a Texas Health hospital near you, visit TexasHealth.org/Advances or call 1-877-THR-WELL (1-877-847-9355). Young at Heart? Texas Health’s innovative Heart Health Profiler allows you to keep tabs on your heart health and become educated about personal risk factors so you can make wise decisions to stay healthy. This sophisticated online tool allows you to compare your actual age to your heart’s biological age, calculate your risk of developing cardiovascular disease and prioritize your most harmful cardiovascular risk factors. At the end of the brief questionnaire, the Heart Health Profiler reveals your heart age, your 10-year cardiovascular disease risk and your cardiovascular disease risk factors. To take the test, visit YourHeartAge.com.
