American Heart Month

February is American Heart Month. Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in America. Be sure to have regular checkups and pay attention to your body's needs. The American Heart association says,

"Every 80 seconds, one woman is killed by heart disease and stroke. That’s 1 in 3 deaths among women each year. These statistics can be shocking, but building awareness is one of the best ways to fight this horrible disease. Did you know that 80% of these deaths can be prevented with education and action? "
