WHY ? After more than 18 months into this pandemic, Americans feel overwhelmed and stressed, which negatively impacts cardiovascular health. Heart disease deaths rose significantly in the past year. Cardiovascular diseases remain the greatest health threat to Americans, but the pressures of COVID-19 remain top of mind. People are suffering from lower physical health and mental well-being, as well as uncontrolled high blood pressure. Stress from the fallout of the pandemic is amplifying these conditions. This February, we are uniting for American Heart Month to help Reclaim Your Rhythm to live longer, healthier, fuller lives. Because losing even one mom, brother, friend or neighbor to cardiovascular disease is too many. Poor mental well-being is a critical problem that, if neglected, can lead to serious health complications like heart disease. Today, 1 in 3 Americans report being worried and more than half of U.S. adults say that COVID-19 has negatively impacted their mental well-being due to worry DANCE YOU R and stress. HEART OUT
