For the past 100 years, heart disease has been the leading cause of death in the United States.
American Heart Month remains an important reminder of just how vital a healthy heart is for your overall health, and that it’s never too late to start making heart-healthy choices.
Understand Your Heart Health Risk Factors
Understanding your risk factors for heart disease is the first step to take towards a healthier heart. Risk factors include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and physical inactivity.
