Did you know that cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death in the United States? As a matter of fact, more than half a million Americans die from heart disease related illnesses each year.  As a result, in an effort to promote awareness for heart disease and the methods for preventing it, the month of February has become American Heart Month. 

Heart disease is preventable!  Adapting the following steps for healthy living can help you keep your heart healthy and keep cardiovascular diseases, such as heart attack, coronary heart disease, high cholesterol and stroke, at bay.

• Follow a healthy diet and exercise regimen.
• Shed excess weight and/or maintain an appropriate weight.
• Quit smoking and avoid excessive alcohol intake.
• Keep tabs on your blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
• Consult your doctor about an aspirin regimen.
