Normalizing preventive testing = Proactive, empowered health!
Routine blood tests don't just inform, they protect. Whether it’s an A1C or an HIV test, knowing your status puts you in control.
The A1C test shows your average blood sugar over the past 2-3 months, no fasting needed. A higher A1C means a greater risk of serious health problems like heart disease, nerve damage, kidney issues, and vision loss. The good news? Dropping your A1C by just one point can lower your risk of these complications by up to 40%.
HIV testing is just as essential for your sexual health. Approximately 1 in 8 people with HIV in the U.S. don't know they have it, and this group is linked to nearly 40% of new HIV cases. Routine testing is a powerful way to protect both your health and your community.
You don't have to feel sick to take control of your health. At AvitaCare Atlanta, our providers normalize testing, prevention, and treatment with a healthy dose of compassion. Ready to empower YOUR health? 💙
