Lyster Army Health Clinic reminds everyone to keep hearts on their minds as February begins -- and not just the Valentine's Day kind.
February is American Heart Month, an annual observance to bring awareness to cardiovascular disease -- the nation's No. 1 killer.
LAHC will be showing support for Healthy Heart Month and the GoRed! for Women Campaign by wearing red and providing educational outreach in the clinic Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. People are invited to stop by to learn more about ways to reduce their risk of heart attack and heart disease.
Friday is National Wear Red Day, part of the Go Red for Women movement launched over a decade ago by the American Heart Association to bring attention to the fact that heart disease is not just a man's disease. On this day, everyone is encouraged to wear red and to commit to making lifestyle changes to live longer, healthier lives.
