Her Heart Matters

Friday 12th Sep
Hi everyone, this September I have been taking part in the "Her Heart Matters" campaign which means I diligently walk at least 10,000 steps every day of this month to raise awareness and funds for the Irish Heart Foundation. ❤️

Why does this matter?  

Because her heart matters! Every womans heart in your life matters. ❤️

📍1 in 4 women die from a heart disease and stroke – similar to men. However, research has shown that heart disease in women has been under-researched, under-diagnosed, and under-treated for far too long.

📍As women enter menopause, their risk of heart disease and stroke increases. The good news is that 80% of premature heart disease and stroke can be prevented by a healthy lifestyle. 🙏 

📍By making heart-healthy lifestyle changes and by becoming aware of the symptoms of heart attack particularly in women, this risk can be rapidly reduced. Women are less likely than men to recognise the symptoms of a heart attack, and due to this, often take longer than men to get medical advice and treatment after experiencing one.

📍The main objective of this post is to raise awareness and recognise the symptoms of a heart attack in women. If you read this far, I am super grateful and thank you. 🙏

📍On a final note, if you feel inspired by my daily step challenge this month, it would make me so happy, if you could give whatever you can and every cent will be appreciated. Meanwhile, Ill keep walking my way around Vienna every day this month regardless of rain, wind or sunshine. You are also welcome to follow my page for updates.

Her heart matters ❤️
