Is Your Heart Healthy?

I’m not referring to how happy you are, nor to your relationship status. Though it’s been reported that everyday happiness and having a good relationship can effect how healthy your myocardium is.

I’m asking about your myocardium, your heart. Heart attack and strokes are the number 1 killer of women in the US. February is American Heart Health Month. There are great programs, mostly free, that are worth getting yourself to.

Friday Feb 4 is American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women National Red Day in Style Campaine. Get out your red clothes and wear them with pride on Friday.

February 18 is the luncheon in NYC. Check this link for your local luncheon. http://www.goredforwomen.org/luncheons.aspx

February 9, 10-3pm NYU Medical Center’s Heart Health Fair, 550 1st Avenue, NYC http://cvi.med.nyu.edu/news/news-archive/heart2011
