Metamucil and WomenHeart have created a first-of-its-kind cholesterol screening locator to help women know their number and change their number.

Why Metamucil? Clinical studies have shown that, taken daily, seven grams of soluble fiber from psyllium husk, the amount in three to four servings of Metamucil, may help reduce heart disease risk by lowering cholesterol.  Metamucil and WomenHeart’s “Beautify Your Heart” program is encouraging 100,000 women to know their cholesterol number, by getting a cholesterol screening this year, and changing your number by living a heart healthy lifestyle.

Now you can be one of the 100,000. By simply entering your zip code, you will be directed to locations and businesses offering cholesterol screenings in your area.
