Healthy Snacking - It’s easier than you think!
This month is National Snacking Month and while we’re all about eating some cookies and potato chips, we know that a healthy snack is better for our body. So, while we can indulge occasionally in tasty, not-so-healthy snacks, we can also enjoy and savor some healthy snacks.
Thyroid Awareness
Did you know, according to the American Thyroid Association, almost 60% of those with a thyroid disease aren’t aware they have this condition? This seems to be reason enough to have your thyroid checked each year during your wellness physical at one of our health center sites.

Comprehensive Family Care
What is it and why is it important to you? Comprehensive care means caring for the whole patient and their needs, including medical, dental, and mental health. Another phrase we use is Primary Preventative Care because when you come to the Knox County Community Health Center we offer you and your family all of these services at our various Knox County locations.
Family Fit Lifestyle Month
A New Year is all about setting intentions and creating new habits. Why not make one of them family fitness? No matter the age of your family members, there are exercises and activities you can do together to feel more fit. And the family that exercises together… succeeds together!
