Thanksgiving is Family Health History Day

Knowing your risks today can lead to a healthier tomorrow

SPRINGFIELD–(ENEWSPF)–November 26, 2013.  As many families gather for Thanksgiving, the conversation often drifts toward talking about traits and characteristics that run in their family, such as eye and hair color.
