    QRISK3 and Health MOTs

    In this first episode of Peterloo's Daily Dose, Dr Mo Jiva MBE and Practice Nurse Emma discuss the importance of cardiovascular health and how simple checks can help identify health risks before they become serious problems. The conversation explores QRISK3, the tool used to estimate your risk of developing cardiovascular disease over the next 10 years, and why factors such as age, blood pressure, smoking status, diabetes, and cholesterol levels all matter. Dr Jiva and Emma also explain what cholesterol is, the difference between "good" and "bad" cholesterol, and how lifestyle changes can help improve heart health. The episode also introduces our new Health MOT service at Middleton PCN Hub, available for patients aged 25–84. Find out what to expect from a Health MOT, how it can help you better understand your health, and why prevention is one of the most powerful tools in modern healthcare. Whether you're interested in reducing your risk of heart disease, learning more about cholesterol, or finding out if a Health MOT could benefit you, this episode is packed with practical advice and useful information. Please note: This podcast is intended for general information only and should not be used as a substitute for personalised medical advice from a healthcare professional.
