May 30, 2024 | News & Press Releases
Hy-Vee, Inc. announces today that it will provide 2,000 free omega-3 index screenings during June at select Hy-Vee stores throughout its eight-state region as a part of Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month.
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential to the body as they support a healthy heart and brain. They also work to lower cholesterol, specifically triglyceride levels. The omega-3 index screening measures the amount of omega-3 in the bloodstream and can help identify risk factors.
An omega-3 index screening is administered via a simple finger stick. A few weeks after the screening appointment, individuals will be contacted by their local Hy-Vee dietitian to set up an appointment to go through their results and discuss steps that can be taken to improve their omega-3 levels. The follow-up visits can take place in person, by phone or virtually. Registration is required for the free omega-3 index screening and can be made online. Once registered, a local Hy-Vee dietitian will reach out to schedule a screening based on availability. Omega-3 index screenings are only available while supplies last and are provided in partnership with GOED, Nordic Naturals and the Alzheimer’s Association. A list of Hy-Vee locations offering the screening can be found below.
Hy-Vee dietitians will also be offering the following events throughout the month:
