Fight Heart Disease: Wear Red for Women on February 4th

Did you know that heart disease is still the number one killer of women, or that 1 in 30 American women die of breast cancer, but 1 in 3 die of heart disease? The American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women program, and its National Wear Red Day (February 4th) help raise awareness about women’s risk for heart disease.

Before you put your red dress on, learn a little bit about your own heart’s health. Check out Heart Healthy at Any Age on the AHA website for tips on how to reduce your risk of heart disease, and take their My Life Check assessment test. You can also learn about the 7 things you can do to improve your heart’s health.

Inspired? Tell your girlfriends about how they can keep their hearts healthy!
