This year’s Caribbean Nutrition Day will be celebrated with a health fair at the Farmer’s Market at Camana Bay on Thursday, 1 July from 4 – 7:30 p.m.
Learn how to use local produce to cook healthily without sacrificing flavour and check your numbers with free health screenings that includes blood pressure checks and cholesterol and blood glucose testing. The first 200 people to receive health checks will get a free pedometer.
The event is hosted by the Public Health Department in partnership with The Heart Health Centre, Foster’s Food Fair and Market at the Grounds.
