Most people don't see themselves as potential heart attack or stroke victims. But it happens to many of us after age 40 and especially after age 55. If one of the following risk factors applies to you, then it could be very helpful to look into heart health tips sooner rather than later;
* High blood pressure
* High blood cholesterol
* Diabetes
* Smoking
* Being overweight
* Being physically inactive
* Having a family history of early heart disease
* Age (55 or older for women)
The National Heart, Blood and Lung Institute has a 122 page handbook about heart health that you can download for free, or get a copy sent to you for $3.75. It's The Healthy Heart Handbook for Women '07.
