Did you know?
• Asian Americans are at higher risk for several diseases, including tuberculosis, osteoporosis, Hepatitis B, Type 2 diabetes, and cancer.
• Many of these diseases are preventable, but go undetected due to lack of visible symptoms.
• Early detection allows for greater treatment options with higher chances of success.
• Regular screenings ensure that common but serious diseases are prevented, detected and/ or treated at their early stages, and can ultimately save your life.
Have you been screened?
The Japanese American Service Committee is offering discounted health screenings for anyone over age 18. Basic screenings will test for diabetes, cholesterol levels, liver and kidney function, electrolytes (including potassium and calcium), iron, and blood count.
These tests are a convenient and low-cost alternative to being tested in a doctorÂ’s office, and are a good option for the temporarily unemployed and uninsured.
