Go Red for women
Did you know that heart disease is the number one killer of women in Australia? It is a concerning fact that in Australia, 90% of women have at least one risk factor for heart disease, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol or a family history of heart disease, and 50% have two or three. Most of these women are unaware that these risk factors increase their chance of developing heart disease. It doesn’t matter if it’s your mother, aunt, cousin, sister, friend or colleague. Let them know about heart disease.

Go Red for Women is the Heart Foundation’s campaign to raise awareness about women and heart disease. This year’s campaign will feature a free six week Healthy Heart Challenge, starting on 4 June. The online Challenge aims to educate women about heart disease and risk factors and encourage them to make simple changes to their lifestyle to improve their heart health. Participants can choose one of four goals and will receive a weekly eNewsletter with tips, tools, recipes and information to help them achieve their Challenge goal. Over 17,000 people signed up for the Healthy Heart Challenge in 2011. At the end of the Challenge this is what they told us: 85% increased their level of physical activity; 70% lost weight; 53% lowered their high cholesterol levels; 51% lowered their high blood pressure and 60% participants were more confident to speak to their health professional about their heart health. Do something for yourself and sign up to the Healthy Heart Challenge visit www.goredfrowomen.org.au
