To mark World Heart Day, which took place on the 29th of September, an event entitled ‘Let’s share energy’ was held on Ulaanbaatar’s Sukhbaatar square. The event was co-organised by the Ministry of Health, Khaan Bank, the Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences and the Mongolian Heart Federation.
During the event, more than 4000 Mongolians received practical advice on heart disease, exercising, dieting, measuring blood pressure and determining one’s body mass index. In addition, over 500 easy-to-read illustrated booklets about blood pressure were given out.
