What could be more important than the health of your heart? We now know that 80 percent of cardiac disease is preventable, with certain lifestyle factors even shown to reverse heart disease – something that heart medications rarely achieve but simple lifestyle changes can. This is great news – you have the power to prevent (or even reverse) the number one cause of death for American men and women.
Now, the latest medical research can guide you to make empowered, healthy (and enjoyable!) dietary and lifestyle changes which will lower your risk of heart disease. Get empowered with this informative and interesting workshop with Laura Varich, MD, a certified lifestyle medicine physician, while also sampling some recommended foods for heart health. You’ll see just how easy it is to incorporate them into your diet.
