Heart Month

Hello February! Today is the start of American Heart Month in which we join in spreading awareness and supporting the millions of Americans living with a cardiovascular condition.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. However, you can do a lot to protect your heart by prioritizing your health. Being physically, active, eating healthier foods, getting enough sleep, not smoking, and finding healthy ways to reduce stress, are all ways in which you can prevent heart disease.

Focusing on your heart health has never been more important. To learn more please visit the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute website at nhlbi.nih.gov.
