Go Red For Women Campaign: Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of all Americans - including women. Yet less than 10% of American women recognize heart disease as their leading cause of death. The perception is that heart disease is a man’s disease, but the reality is that more women die each year from heart disease than men. Heart disease claims more than 500,000 women a year – that’s one wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend every minute. Research shows the perception is that cancer is the leading health problem and cause of death today, even though 1 in 2 American women will die of heart disease - compared to 1 in 29 of breast cancer. The perception is that heart disease only affects old people yet the reality is, of the estimated 61 million Americans with cardiovascular disease, 31 million are under the age of 65 - a little more than half. Ninety percent of women feel they have power over their health - but only 13 percent recognize heart disease as a serious health threat according to a recent American Heart Association survey. Clearly a significant gap exists between the perception of heart disease and the reality of it. In response to these misperceptions, the American Heart Association is launching “Go Red For Women” to:

• Empower women to reduce their risk of heart disease
• Generate awareness about the magnitude of cardiovascular disease in women
• Encourage women to take steps to reduce their risk of heart disease
