Red Alert!

Heart disease is my biggest health threat? You're kidding, right? It's a man's disease. I'm a woman.

Yes, you're a woman, and…

About one of every 2.5 women dies of heart disease, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases.

Every year since 1984 more women than men have died of heart disease, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases. The difference is staggering and the gap is widening.
