We’re all heart this February and for good reason! Now take a moment to appreciate yours. Seriously. Stop & feel your heart beating. Depending on your activity level & fitness, it could be beating up to 115,200 times a day! It can be easy to take this organ for granted. But consider this: Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, killing more than 600,000 Americans each year. According to the American Heart Association in 2017:

• Cardiovascular disease, listed as the underlying cause of death, accounts for nearly 801,000 deaths in the US. That’s about 1 of every 3 deaths in the US.
• About 2,200 Americans die of cardiovascular disease each day, an average of 1 death every 40 seconds.
• Cardiovascular diseases claim more lives each year than all forms of cancer and Chronic Lower Respiratory Disease combined.

Direct and indirect costs of cardiovascular diseases and stroke are estimated to total more than $316 billion
