Friday Five – National Wear Red Day

Feb 4, 2022 | Posted by Annmarie Budniak | Celebrations - Awareness, HIT Feed |

Follow and join the conversation with #GoRedforWomen and #WearRedDay.

To dispel the myths and raise awareness of heart disease & stroke as the number one killer of women, the American Heart Association (@American_Heart) created Go Red For Women, a passionate, emotional, social initiative designed to empower women to take charge of their heart health. This week’s Friday Five highlights the initiative, explains why it’s important, and offers ways for readers to participate and Go Red for Women.

  • G: GET YOUR NUMBERS
    Ask your doctor to check your blood pressure and cholesterol.
  • O: OWN YOUR LIFESTYLE
    Stop smoking, lose weight, exercise, and eat healthy.
    It’s up to you. No one can do it for you.
  • R: REALIZE YOUR RISK
    We think it won’t happen to us, but heart disease kills one of three women.
  • E: EDUCATE YOUR FAMILY
    Make healthy food choices for you and your family.
    Teach your kids the importance of staying active.
  • D: DON’T BE SILENT
    Tell every woman you know that heart disease is our No. 1 killer.

Reclaim Your Rhythm with Go Red for Women

Join an incredible group of speakers as they share the latest on women’s health and well-being and discuss how Go Red for Women is breaking barriers and achieving equitable health through research, education and advocacy. Watch the premiere on AHA’s YouTube channel, Friday, Feb. 4 at 1 p.m. CST. Additionally, Go Red for Women has an abundance of resources to help you “Reclaim your Rhythm” by creating “healthy habits that work best for you — and take back control of your physical and mental well-being.”

Get inspired to reclaim your well-being! Join @NancyatHeart, @StarJonesEsq, @JenHale504, Dr. Michelle Albert & Dr. Jessica Mega of @verilylifesci Friday at 2pm ET or watch on demand any time this #HeartMonth: https://t.co/v6V2t14PrS pic.twitter.com/RUNnUPQnGL
