Guest:  Kristen Tonevero Cardiologist with Intermountain Health  

February is American Heart Month, aiming to raise awareness about heart disease, the leading cause of death in the U.S. The American Heart Association encourages everyone to prioritize heart health through regular exercise and stress management. Heart disease encompasses various cardiovascular issues, with common forms including coronary artery disease and congestive heart failure. Women and diabetics often experience atypical heart disease symptoms, making early detection and attention to heart health crucial.  Don't ignore your symptoms, we didn't get here overnight so don't expect to change it overnight.
