This February, Woodholme Cardiovascular Associates proudly supports Wear Red for Heart Health Day and Heart Health Month, a nationwide movement initiated by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute to raise awareness about cardiovascular disease and its impact on our health. Heart disease remains the leading cause of death for men and women in the United States, emphasizing the importance of preventive measures and education in maintaining heart health.
Wear Red Day, held on the first Friday of February, symbolizes our collective commitment to fighting heart disease. By donning red, we not only honor those affected by heart disease but also spread the message of hope and the importance of heart health.
Throughout Heart Health Month, Woodholme Cardiovascular Associates encourages everyone to take actionable steps towards improving heart health. This includes adopting a healthy diet, engaging in regular physical activity, managing stress, and scheduling regular check-ups with your healthcare provider to monitor heart health.
