Digestive Health: Are You On Track?
Your digestive track health is more important than you might think. Colorectal cancer is the fourth most common type of cancer in the U.S. And, heartburn can be more than just a nuisance - for some it can be a daily struggle, and for others it can signal a far more serious situation, such as heart disease.
St. Luke’s is hosting an upcoming free community event during March, which is Colon Cancer Awareness Month, designed to educate individuals about symptoms, as well as ways to improve digestive health and colorectal cancer risks.
Hear from speakers Dr. Dean Abramson, Gastroenterologists, P.C.; Matt Schmitz, St. Luke’s Personal Trainer and Colleen Brown, St. Luke’s Dietician.
