One for the guys and one for the gals

Guys. If you're looking to lower your risk of heart failure be sure to eat whole grain breakfast cereal. As reported in the current issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine - 7 servings a week reduced the risk of heart failure by 29%.
Whole grain cereals getting the thumbs up include: shredded wheat, bran or oatmeal that include the entire kernel. Basically, any cereal with at least 25% of whole grain or bran by weight were classified as whole grain.

Gals:(really the whole family)
There's a big health festival on Saturday at the Chester Town Hall.

From 11 to 3 there will be an array of activities including free mammograms for women. There are still a few appointments open so give them a call at 1-800-822-0121.
