heart disease

March is Women's History Month and has been since 1987 when Congress declared it. (Man, I was only 3!) Some people don't really celebrate it, forgetting that none of us would be here if it weren't for some woman!

Historically, women have been seen as the gentler of sexes and have been historically prone to many diseases that don't affect men as signifigantly. These diseases are heart disease, cancers and stroke to name a few. More can be found here. And they can all be prevented (outside of genetic predeterminants) ith small lifestyle changes. Most of these changes have to do with what we put INTO our bodies (And yes, that includes our diet)

Women, we can change the course of history and take out many of these preventable diseases before they make US history!
