POLOKWANE – In South Africa, cardiovascular disease is the second biggest killer after HIV/AIDS.
While it is a growing problem within our country, about 80% of cardiovascular disease can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle.
For the Heart and Stroke Awareness Month, Mediclinic Limpopo will be offering a free five-minute blood pressure, cholesterol and glucose screening test at Savannah Mall on 30 and 31 October.
