Dear John,
When was the last time you checked in on your heart? As the leading cause of death for women in the U.S., heart disease doesn’t always come with warning signs. But regular screenings can detect risk factors like high blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels—long before symptoms appear.
Why Heart Screenings Matter: -
High blood pressure often has no symptoms, but it can lead to heart attacks and strokes if left unchecked.
-
Cholesterol levels can silently build up in the arteries, causing blockages that increase the risk of heart disease.
-
Diabetes and heart disease are closely linked, and monitoring blood sugar can help prevent complications.
Before the year ends, prioritize your heart health. Make that appointment, take charge of your well-being, and step into 2025 with a heart-healthy mindset.
