Heart Disease Women are at Risk Too!

Women at Risk for Heart Disease Too, it's not just us men at risk. Heart disease is no longer a men's disease. It is actually the #1 killer of women in the U.S. According to the American Heart Association (AHA), heart disease can affect women differently than
men. The most recent AHA guidelines underscore the need for women to make changes sooner rather than later to reduce their lifetime risk of heart disease. Recommended lifestyle changes include eating a diet low in saturated fat and rich in fruits and vegetables and getting regular physical activity.
