FEBRUARY IS AMERICAN HEART MONTH |
|
Did you know that heart disease is the #1 cause of death in the United States? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have designated February as American Heart Month to educate the public about healthy living and raise awareness about heart health.
There are many risk factors that contribute to the development of heart disease. Through basic lifestyle changes, such as eating healthy foods and integrating physical activity into your daily routine, you reduce the chance of developing heart disease.
The South Windsor Health Department has information about healthy lifestyle choices, and downloadable cookbooks with recipes for healthy meals, so you may begin taking steps towards living a healthier life - your heart will appreciate it!
