TAMPA, Fla., (WFLA) — Living a healthier lifestyle was promoted Saturday with a massive expo featuring all things health and lifestyle.

The annual Bloom Health Expo had an exciting lineup of health providers, activities, and entertainment for the whole family to enjoy.

The Collins family is one of many that came out to continue their health journey.

“I’m a former athlete myself, but I’ve gotten away from it for a while and now, I’m getting myself back into it. I’m just trying to be a leading example for my girls,” said Kareem Collins.

Doctors, specialists, and anyone you can think of were all present to help guide people.

One of the booths was all about vein disease.

“Millions of unaware Americans suffer from vein disease that they and their doctors don’t know about. Unfortunately, it’s extremely common, the leading cause of ankle swelling, night cramps, restless legs, and ulcers,” said Dr. Christopher Pittman of Vein 911.

Solutions were provided, like wearing compression on your legs.

Bloom’s very own Gayle Guyardo spent time talking to people and helping promote a healthier way of living.

Another place people stopped at was in the AdventHealth section, tailored to bariatrics and weight loss.

“Obesity is very common, it can affect people regardless of race, sex, gender, and it can affect people at any age, including pediatric patients. So, it’s important to have awareness that it exists, so you know that this is something that can be treated,” said Dr. Marco Rajo. “It affects so many other parts of your body, so a lot of the other things we are screening for today, have a direct relation or correlation to obesity.”

The professionals say obesity can lead to things like heart and blood pressure disease.

Free screenings and scans were also provided, scans that experts say can save your life.

“My father lost his life to pancreatic cancer, when he thought something wasn’t right, they scanned and missed it, which is kind of what we do differently, we programmed our machines where we are capturing machines that traditional scanners may not,” said Frankie Maldonado with Lifeguard Imaging.

“The most important thing is anybody who you know that has died of a heart attack, who has had a late-stage diagnosis of cancer, ask the question of did they know about it beforehand and it’s rhetorical, they didn’t, or they would have done something about it.”

If you didn’t get the chance to come out, you can always watch Gayle on Bloom from 2 to 3 on weekdays for different tips on how to live a healthier lifestyle.
