Officially, the first of October, and in practice, the whole month of October is dedicated to the Senior Citizens.
On this occasion, on 22 October in Wrocław a meeting was organised by two pharmacies befriended with ASA: Tumska and Promyk Słońca.
Over 200 senior citizens came to celebrate the Senior Citizens' Day. They participated in games and dances, and they could also admire dancers from the Wrocław Dancing Centre dancing group. We also used the time to remind the senior citizens what they could do in order to even better take care of their health.
All participants of the event willing to take care of their health were introduced to our leading pro-health preparations, such as Sterolea, Novocardia, Artresan, MaxiVision Total.
Sterolea enjoyed special popularity as senior citizens are very well aware of the importance of cardiologic health and of the potential threats that may await them.
The question whether we have any grounds to worry about the cardiologic health was answered by everyone: YES.
To confirm the alarming scientific data, according to which:
- 70% of adult Poles have an increased level of cholesterol,
- 17.5 millions Poles have problems with proper blood pressure,
- 36% of Poles are active smokers,
- 46% of Poles have an incorrect body weight (overweight or obesity),
The senior citizens were given various guidebooks, information materials and preparations so that they could effectively take care of their health.
Dear Senior Citizens, we wish you a cheerful, sunny and careless autumn of your life. And we promise that we do remember about you not only on the Senior Citizen's Day.
