Despite women being twice as likely as men to die within 30 days of a heart attack, heart disease is often still overlooked as a serious women’s health issue.
High blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, smoking and not exercising enough are just some of the issues that can lead to a higher risk of suffering a heart attack, so paying close attention to these is really important, whatever your age.
Women are generally protected from heart disease during their reproductive years because oestrogen levels are high, but oestrogen levels drop after menopause and the risk of heart disease increases.
Fancy taking a deep dive into your medical and family history, sleep, movement and diet and working with me to draw up your own, unique nutrition and wellness plan?
If you feel you need some guidance or help making a change, I offer a 30-minute zoom or telephone discussion to talk through your health goals, and give you an opportunity to ask any questions you may have regarding the consultation process.
