❤️ Heart Health Month | APPNA & APCNA ❤️

This Heart Health Month, APPNA, in collaboration with APCNA – Association of Pakistani-Descent Cardiologists of North America, reminds our community that a healthy heart is the foundation of a healthy life. While heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the U.S., it is also one of the most preventable.

Small, consistent steps—staying active, eating well, managing stress, avoiding to***co, and keeping up with regular checkups—can make a powerful difference. Prevention starts with awareness and action.

🫀 Take one step for your heart this month:
• Know your numbers (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar)
• Move your body at least 30 minutes most days
• Schedule a screening or annual checkup
• Share heart health information with a loved one

Heart health is a community effort. Together, we can prevent disease, save lives, and build healthier futures.
