“The 'I’m Tired of Heart Disease' bracelets work in two ways: they raise important funds for new research and education to fight heart disease — the #1 cause of death in America — and, they serve as a visible daily reminder to take care of your own heart! We’re very grateful for the support of donors and I’m Tired of...”
— Fianna Dickson, Director of Public Relations, The Hope Heart Institute

 

Cardiovascular disease has been the number one killer in the US every year but one since 1900. That’s devastating. Every 20 seconds, a person in the US has a heart attack, and every 34 seconds, someone dies from heart disease. Most of us know what we have to do to prevent it. Simply put, it involves a healthy lifestyle…diet, exercise, no smoking and moderate use of alcohol to keep blood pressure and cholesterol low. Did you know that people who are sedentary, are twice as likely to suffer a heart attack as someone who is active? Yet, more than 66% of Americans, over the age of 20, are obese. Continued preventitive education is obviously needed.

The medical profession has certainly come a very long way in treating heart disease. Life-saving heart bypass surgery and angioplasty to open up clogged arteries have made great advances. Yet, in spite of this, it has not yet been knocked out of its number one fatality-causing status. Your help can make a difference!



The non-profit Hope Heart Institute has a 50-year history of revolutionary medical advances and educational curriculums that make heart disease - America's #1 cause of death - more treatable, beatable and preventable. Hope Heart Institute Website
