February is a month dedicated to our hearts. Are you ready to keep you and your family’s heart safe? This was definitely not an idea that started overnight, but began its humble footsteps way back in 1964. That was a time when many heart related diseases and deaths rose at alarming levels.
What does research reveal?
During a recent research, it was found that cardiovascular disease seems to be overpowering the normal lives of men and women in USA. At the same time, with due attention, knowledge and care, we really can brush aside this slow terror that seeps into our life.
Almost one in three women suffers and loses their lives every year. The sad part is that almost 80% of the cases could have been brought to safety if they received a bit of education. By education, I clearly mean making them aware that they can be saved.
- In the past years, about 2.6 million women of various ages were prone to a heart attack.
- At present more than 43 million women suffer from any form of heart disease
- Out of these, African American women seem to catch with the disease the most, followed by Mexican American women.
- Studies show that this could be due to obesity, intake of high fat content food and also less physical activity when they have a leisure time.
So, here I strive to shine a bit light on how we all can support and relieve millions of people out there who are struggling to keep their hearts safe from diseases. Won’t you join me?
The Big Day- February 5th
On February 5th, you can and in fact should be a part of a movement that particularly focuses on fighting the terror called heart disease. So gear up and learn what your role can be in this heartwarming movement.
How can you make everyone aware?
- First, the simple trick is to educate your very own self.
- Second, share the knowledge with others who may be in need
- Third, build a community that shares and supports all who have fears and misconceptions about the disease.
Support Red
If you do believe you can play a role in making lives of people better, you must support red. A few things you actually can do and in fact if done enthusiastically; it paves a path for us to follow your track.
Self Awareness
This would include facts that hold the backbone of the issue. You need to understand the cause of heart diseases, and the options available for treatment. And also how we can create a culture that makes people mentally aware of how crucial it is improve one’s health.
Reach out
The most important purpose behind your work is to rescue at least thousands of people who live around you. For that, you need to speak to them and encourage them to meet at a common place, discuss, and share experiences and opinions. This builds a great and wonderful feeling of hope and happiness in the minds of the sick- that they are not alone. This is a motivational booster beyond recognition.
Communities build up
A lot of results can be noticed if you have a community to support your cause. So, try to talk to educated senior professors regarding good health. Plus get in touch with doctors, medical practitioners and any other people who are connected with the world of medicine and good living.
Allow them to give talks, give practical classes about what is heart disease. Next, you need to bring in food nutritionists who can make people more knowledgeable on how to change their diet. Conduct classes where more cost effective organic and healthy food can be prepared by the people.
This leads to less sick people and more of a happy world to live in.
