Wear Red February 1 for Women: Raise Awareness of Killer Heart Attacks

Help raise awareness of deadly cardiovascular disease. 

It's reported that 1 in 4 women die of cardiovascular complications each year.

Continue reading to learn how to raise awareness of one of women's most-deadly diseases.

Did you know heart disease kills six times as many women per year as breast cancer? 

In comparison, we seem hardly aware that women have heart attacks! The reality is that women do, yet cannot identify the warning signs. Those signs differ from widely-disseminated information in the past, which pertained to heart disease as it affects the male physiology due to historically lagging studies on the effects of cardiovascular disease in women.

Researchers and support organizations have only recently begun to understand and work for improvements to women's health pertaining to heart disease. Now, greater awareness of the differences between male and female heart attack symptoms can help save lives, and the American Heart Association (AHA) has taken up the mantle in regard to raising awareness and funding via campaign efforts which target and serve the public.

Today, we're spreading the word. Don't miss the Friday fun that happens when everyone gets together to wear red!

On February 1, wear red for fun, raise awareness, and show support all year with the AHA "Go Red for Women" campaign swag for writers, including:

• refillable journal
• soft faux leather journal
• gorgeous red glitter-filled pen (black ink)
• ceramic mug
