February is American Heart Month!  It has been noted by the Center for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) that over 75 million Americans (that is 1 and 3 adults) have high blood pressure. This greatly increases one’s risk for stroke and heart disease. Heart disease, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases kill over 800,000 Americans each year, accounting for one in every three deaths.  Therefore, the CDC, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Million Hearts® have teamed up for a national effort to prevent 1 million heart attacks and strokes in the United States by 2022.  Join the campaign and MAKE BLOOD PRESSURE CONTROL YOUR GOAL!  Call the clinic today for free screening and management help.  We can guide you through blood pressure goals, medication choices, as well as lifestyle management including diet, exercise, and quitting smoking. Make February the month you stay heart-healthy for yourself and the ones you love! If you desire further explanation or health coaching to cheer you along your way, please call the clinic to schedule an appointment at your earliest convenience.  (248) 268-4477 - Activate Healthcare
