May is Stroke Awareness Month

Monday, May 9th, 2011

Every year, 795,000 Americans have a stroke and 144,000 die.1 A stroke happens when an artery is blocked or breaks; as a result, the brain does not get the blood that it needs and begins to die.2 Sounds gruesome, but the more you educate yourself about diet and exercise, the more chance you have of preventing a stroke.

  • a bad cholesterol (LDL) no higher than 130 (an LDL equal to or less than 100 is considered optimal).   (more…)
