Heart disease mortality among younger women is on the rise. With all that we know and all the accessible forms of information and treatment this is really a sad finding.
Smoking, obesity, prevalence of diabetes, lack of activity and negative lifestyle changes all contribute to increased cardiac disease and death in women below the age of 50.
We need to take charge of our lives and start living healthy so we will be around to see our grandkids and live life to the fullest!
Does this scare you? Do you feel like we can make the appropriate changes to turn these numbers around?
