❤️ February is Heart Health Month – Look After Your Heart ❤️

Heart disease remains one of the leading causes of illness and death in the UK, and many heart risk factors develop silently, without symptoms.

This Heart Health Month, we’re encouraging everyone to take a proactive step by checking their heart health with a simple blood test.

At Bencrest Chemist, we offer heart health blood tests that check key markers including:
• Cholesterol (total, LDL, HDL & triglycerides)
• Diabetes risk (HbA1c)
• Inflammation markers
• Liver and kidney function
• Overall cardiovascular risk indicators

✔ Same-day weekday appointments
✔ Fast results with clear written explanations
✔ Reports you can share with your GP
✔ Private, professional service

Your heart works hard for you every day — take a moment this February to look after it.

🔹 Heart disease remains the leading cause of death among men.
🔹 3 out of 4 suicides in the UK are by men — showing how important it is to look after both physical and mental health.

At Bencrest Chemist, we’re supporting Movember by encouraging men to take proactive steps in understanding their health. To help, we’re offering 10% off all Men’s Health Blood Tests throughout November 🩸

Our tests can check key health areas such as:
