Heart Disease
Heart disease continues to be the leading cause of death in the United States, more than cancer or any other disease. That's why Trinity Mother Frances Health System offers numerous prevention and educational programs, including:
Heart's D'Lite: Encourages local restaurants to offer menu items that are certified as heart-healthy by our dietitian.
Advanced Lipid Testing: A genetic predisposition for the development of heart disease can be identified through heredity heart disease testing. Unlike traditional blood tests, the test measures more than cholesterol and triglycerides. Based on results, patients can alter their lifestyles to lessen their risk of heart disease.
