Happy November! Final Round of Health Fairs and Affordable Blood Screenings, Free A1C Tests

Happy November! ❄️

As we enter our final month of the 2024 health fairs, we wanted to remind you of some exciting opportunities. Thanks to our continuing partnership with the State of Alaska Department of Health, eligible participants can still receive free A1C blood sugar screenings at our November health fairs. Some limitations apply, please follow this link for more information.

We’re thrilled to see such positive response to our new screenings – Magnesium ($25), Uric Acid ($25), and Celiac tTG ($40). These tests, along with our full range of affordable screenings, are available at all remaining health fairs. And here’s a peek ahead: stay tuned for new offerings when our season resumes in 2025! ☃️
