Love Your Heart

Aloha ‘Ohana!

When you think about February, you may think: Valentine’s Day, chocolate, love, or maybe anything that’s anti those things. But, one thing to remember this month is our HEARTS, because February is American Heart Month.

While your heart works 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, how often do you think about it?  And how often do you take action to protect the health of your heart? Now’s the time to really start thinking about how you can take better care of yourself.

Heart disease and other cardiovascular issues are on the rise. Many factors can contribute to health issues, but you also have ways you can be proactive about your health. You may think it won’t happen to you, but you never know.

Being informed is important. Learn warning signs and symptoms of heart-related issues. Get in touch with your KHC provider by calling (808) 293-9231 or visit www.koolauloachc.org to schedule an appointment - especially if heart disease runs in your family. Start with small daily actions to help reduce or prevent your risk of developing heart problems.

Take care and have a healthy and happy Aloha Friday!
