Phnom Penh gym to launch 2nd major health and fitness event ...

The Place gymnasium, located on the Pasteur street, will launch ?Pro-Heart? on April 3, an event aimed at raising awareness of cholesterol levels and their effect on cardiac health.

Pro-Heart is made possible thanks to the help of the local division of Swiss healthcare and technology company DKSH.

With this event, the gym hopes to promote a positive lifestyle to complement their exercise equipment.

During the event, gym members will receive cholesterol check for free, with the results to be interpreted by DKSH-provided group of medical practitioners.

The Pro-Heart campaign is just one of the several health and fitness events the gym has planned, said The Place marketing manager Arlene Bueno, who welcomed the chance to educate gym members on the significance of cardiac health.

?Heart health and cholesterol are fundamental if anyone wants to live a healthy and fit life,? said Bueno. ?Raising awareness of one?s level of cholesterol in the body is paramount to promoting healthy and positive lifestyle.?

Heart disease is one of the major causes of death in the Kingdom. The World Health Organisation said cardiovascular disease comprised over 20 percent of all deaths in Cambodia in 2008, with over a quarter of the population facing risks of severe complications due to raised blood pressure.

Pro-Heart is The Place?s second heart-related event for 2012. In February, the gym provided its members with a free ECG test and bone density scan, as well as consultations with senior cardiologist Alfred Cheng, from Mount Elizabeth Hospital in Singapore.
