Women and Heart Disease
Women and Heart Disease
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women. Each year, nearly twice as many women die of cardiovascular disease as from all forms of cancer combined.
Lake Hospital System's Women's Heart Initiative can help. It's designed to increase awareness of heart disease and help you recognize the risk factors and the signs and symptoms of a heart attack. With this information and a little effort on your part, you have the potential to add years to your life.
