This time of year always brings with it a lot of uncertain weather. Having just come back from Northwestern, PA, I have certainly seen my share of snow. Yesterday arrived with sleet and snow to the Maryland/DC/VA region. I think it followed me:)
This did not stop me from getting out there with the help of the city of Rockville clean up crew . I found myself at Clear Channel, Washington DC at the invitation of the American Heart Association,Go Red for Women and Clear Channel. Clear Channel is the home of 97.1, Hot 99.5, 98.7 WMZQ and DC101. I had the pleasure and honor of pretaping a segment that will air on January 30th ( in preparation of heart month) on heart health and women and heart disease. Dr Hamid Taheri, Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine, George Washington University Co-Director of Coronary and Peripheral Interventional Cardiology and I were guided through the interview by Bernie Lucas from Clear Channel.
I was able to share my story and also the signs, symptoms and importance of knowing your numbers and being your own advocate. Dr Taheri offered a lot of very informative information on heart disease, stroke, risk factors and so much more.
This will air on all five of their channels so I hope you will tune in to learn more on how you can live a heart healthy life. Its important to remember that roughly 80% of heart health YOU have control of so when you make those choices today, choose wisely!
Today and everyday, LISTEN TO YOUR HEART...oh yeah and the interview on WMZQ and its sister stations!
Don't forget, NATIONAL WEAR RED DAY IS ON FEBRUARY 4, 2011!!!!
