​ National Wear Red Day

02 Feb 2024 by Ted Escobedo   1 min read
National Wear Red Day, on the first Friday in February, is an annual campaign to raise awareness about heart disease in women. The national campaign urges women to learn their risk for heart disease and to take steps to lower their risk. Some recommendation include:

• Quit smoking. Ask for help if you need it. Your physician has many tools at her side to make quitting a success.
• Change your lifestyle. Become more active and improve your eating habits. This will help with many risk factors including stress, family history, and other health conditions.
• Get routine physical exams.
Heart disease and stroke kill one in three women. These diseases are 80 percent preventable according to Go Red for Women's official website.
