Celebrating Go Red Day

                                 


        


Yesterday was the kick off day of The American Heart Association Go Red Day to bring awareness of woman and heart disease! 

Here are a few facts about Heart Disease and African American Woman.

  • Cardiovascular diseases kill nearly 50,000   African-American woman annually. 
  • Of African-American woman ages 29 and older, 49 percent have heart disease.
  • Only 1 in 5 African-American woman believes she is personally at risk.
  • Only 52 percent of African-American woman are aware of the signs and symptoms of a heart attack.
  • Only 36 percent of African-American women know that heart disease is their greatest health risk.
That’s why I’m celebrating National Go Red Day and making an appointment with my cardiologist for a heart tune up!
