On Friday, February 5, the National Wear Red Day is encouraging women to wear the color red to show their support for prevention of heart disease. The goal of the campaign is to reduce coronary heart disease and stroke risk by 25% in 2010.
Heart disease is often perceived as a man's disease, but that fact couldn't be more wrong. "Go Red for Women" is spreading the word to women about how to talk to their doctors, what simple things we can do to avoid and prevent heart disease and how to help others like themselves.
