Cheerios Circle of Helping Hearts Giveaway - CLOSED
This giveaway is now closed. Winners will be announced soon!
Do you know if you're at risk for heart disease?
Do you know if you're at risk for heart disease?
Most of us know that smoking, being overweight and having high blood pressure are all risk factors for heart disease. But did you know that having a family history of heart disease, women over age 55 and women who've had a hysterectomy or gone through menopause are at an increased risk?
I knew about the family history, but had no idea that age and "women's" issues could contribute to heart disease as well.
Even poorly managed stress can contribute to heart disease.
(Note to self: Chill out!)
To help raise awareness for heart disease and give free cholesterol screenings for women in need Cheerios has partnered with WomenHeart and will donate $1, (up to $200,000) now through January 31, 2010. Just purchase Cheerios (because you already do, right?) and codes are found in specially marked boxes. Enter your codes at www.cheerioshelpinghearts.com
Cheerios and Charity Charms have generously offered three of my readers a fresh water pearl bracelet with a heart charm. Charity Charms donates a portion of it's proceeds to various charites.
It's a great way to show your support to women's heart health!
To win one of these pretty bracelets leave me a comment telling me:
What do you do to maintain a healthy heart?

what I do to maintain a healthy heart is to eat a diet very low in cholesterol and fat! Heart disease concerns me greatly as I have lost my dad and several siblings due to heart trouble from age 5 to age 50!
Have a positive attitude about life.
I try to walk daily and limit my intake of salt.
I'm trying to eat better and exercise more. Thank you!
