Heart Health Awareness Month

Heart Health Awareness Month, observed in February, aims to educate people about the importance of maintaining a healthy heart. It highlights risk factors such as high blood pressure, cholesterol, smoking, and lack of exercise, which can lead to heart disease—the leading cause of death worldwide. The month encourages regular check-ups, healthy eating, physical activity, and smoking cessation. By increasing awareness, individuals can make informed lifestyle choices to prevent heart conditions, promote early detection, and improve overall cardiovascular health. This initiative empowers people to take proactive steps toward a longer, healthier life.
