Wear Red for Heart Disease Awareness

February is American Heart Month. Wear red the first Friday of February each year to help raise awareness about heart disease. Being healthy is your best accessory.

Heart disease is the number one killer of women. It can begin early, even in the teen years. A woman’s risk for heart disease rises between the ages of 40 and 60. No matter how old you are, you can take steps to lower your risk for heart disease.
