Join us today as we to raise awareness for women’s heart health. Heart disease is the #1 killer of women, but it's often underdiagnosed. Wearing red is a simple way to spark conversation and show support.

Did you know that cardiovascular disease affects nearly 45% of women over age 20? Throughout this month, we'll be sharing important information and ways you can take charge of your heart health at any age.

❤️ Your heart has a story. Are you only reading the first page?

We’ve all been told the basics: watch your diet, exercise, and check your cholesterol. But for many women, that "standard" advice can feel like trying to read a book in the dark. 🌑

A woman’s heart risk isn’t just about a single lab result. It is written in the chapters of her life—through the "stress tests" of pregnancy (like eclampsia and gestational hypertension), the transition of menopause, and the genetic markers we rarely talk about.

It’s time to turn on the lights.

We are proud to announce that Dr. Linda Ireland is representing our team at this year’s AHA Go Red for Women event with an interactive workshop, which is designed to help you move past general awareness and into a true understanding of your cardiovascular health. We invite you to step out of the shadows and engage with your data.

Bring your story with you: If you have your recent health information—such as family history, pregnancy history, blood pressure readings, lipid panels, and kidney function labs—please bring them! We will guide you through using your data to find your personalized 10-year risk score, understand women-specific risk factors, and identify steps to lower your risk!

Let’s Go Red, Alaska. Because your story is too important to leave in the shadows.

Metabolic syndrome is a group of five conditions that can lead to heart disease, diabetes, stroke and other health problems. Metabolic syndrome is diagnosed when someone has three or more of these risk factors.

If you think you may be at risk for metabolic syndrome, please see your doctor. Although metabolic syndrome is a serious condition, you can reduce your risks significantly by:

☑️Losing weight
☑️Increasing your physical activity
☑️Eating a heart-healthy diet that’s rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and fish
☑️Get 24/7 access to your medical records and lab results
☑️Working with your health care team to monitor and manage your blood glucose, blood cholesterol, and blood pressure.

If you use any ni****ne products, quitting may be the most critical step you can take for your heart health. According to the American Heart Association, your risk of heart disease begins to drop just 24 hours after quitting smoking!

Ni****ne is known for being challenging to quit, and for many reasons. For some people, quitting "cold turkey" is most effective, while for others, cutting back slowly works best. If you're looking to quit, many health insurance plans include coverage for to***co cessation, and free resources are available at https://alaskaquitline.com/.

Find more tips for quitting or cutting back on to***co use and find additional resources at https://www.heart.org/en/healthy-living/healthy-lifestyle/quit-smoking-to***co/5-steps-to-quit-smoking.

Today is National Take a Walk Outdoors Day!

Even in Alaska's winter weather, staying active is crucial for heart health. Just 30 minutes of moderate activity most days can:
• Lower blood pressure
• Improve cholesterol levels
• Reduce stress
• Strengthen your heart

Stay safe by being mindful of any slick road or trail conditions, and use added traction on boots or shoes. Added tip: for Anchorage residents over 60, Skinny Raven Sports offers free shoe studding!
