Wear Red Day

Today is National Wear Red Day.  Must admit, I had missed the press leading up to it.  As chance would have it, the plaid winter scarf I have been wearing all day has lots of red in it .I wanted to do more though than wear red and went to the American Heart Association website for qualified information to pass on to you. Wearing red creates awareness for action.  These 7 action steps are taken from the American Heart Association.

"Life's Simple 7"

• Get Active
• Control Cholesterol
• Eat Better
• Manage Blood Pressure
• Lose Weight
• Reduce Blood Sugars
• Stop Smoking

 

One of our travelers is a leading Cardiologist and her best advice to me was Walk,Walk, Walk.  She recommends walking 10,000 steps a day.  Not quite there yet.  Let's consider I am a work in progress!
