The Student Affairs Administration, in cooperation with the Student Health Education Club in the colleges, organized a medical awareness event about heart diseases in conjunction with World Heart Day, which falls on September 28, 2017.
The event aims to introduce students to the concept of heart disease and the percentage of people affected by it in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia by informing them of medical awareness brochures, as well as encouraging good eating habits, such as adding more whole grain meals, natural products, fruits and vegetables to the contents of the menu.
This meeting also aims to provide awareness information about the harms of being overweight and unhealthy food, and raising awareness about the importance of exercising during rest periods for at least 30 minutes a day, which can reduce the risk of heart disease.
