Two New Ways to Assess Your Heart Disease Risk

Log on to www.reynoldsriskscore.org. Answer a few questions about your health and family history, and the program -- developed by Harvard University researchers -- will tell you your risk for a heart attack or stroke over the next 10 years. (Note: You'll need to know your blood pressure and cholesterol levels.)
Get an hs-CRP test, which can detect the level of inflammation in your coronary arteries. High levels mean you may be at risk for sudden cardiac death, the most common kind of heart-related death in women. The test costs less than $20, depending on insurance, and is one of the only screenings for which research was done primarily on women.

Hi folks! I am very excited to share with you a wonderful guide that helped me quit smoking for good - I have 9 months of smoke-free now, with the help of Allen Hudson's Quit Smoking Strategy. With Allen's guidance I managed to overcome my dependency, to fight the withdrawal symptoms and any temptations. I am so happy, my family and friends are so proud of me and most importantly, I feel healthy and full of energy! All thanks to Allen and his Quit Smoking Strategy: quitsmokingstrategy.com

Nutrition facts should also include the how much sodium is in this meal; many heart patients have to keep track of their use of sodium.
