Woodland Healthcare Hosts Free Heart Fair for Women
The 2008 Women at Heart: A Healthy Living Event for Women provided a unique opportunity for women to see how some surprising activities and indulgences can actually improve their heart health. The goal of this exciting event was to celebrate American Heart Month and remind women that although heart disease is their number one killer, there are simple (and fun!) things they can do to help stay healthy.
Heart disease is the number one killer of American women, according to the American Heart Association. Contrary to popular belief, more women than men die of heart disease in America and, heart disease kills more women than cancer.
At past Women at Heart events, guests have enjoyed a series of health education seminars presented by Woodland Healthcare physicians, wonderful samplings of dark chocolate, imported coffee, music, massage and tips to help reduce stress and lead healthier lives.
Watch for details about the 4th Annual Women at Heart event, coming early in 2009.
