NEW CITY Rockland County Executive Ed Day and County Health Commissioner Dr. Patricia Schnabel Ruppert remind residents that February is Heart Month a good time to learn how to prevent heart disease and stay heart healthy.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for men and women in the United States. The good news is that by living a healthy lifestyle, you can help keep your blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar at normal levels and lower your risk for heart disease and heart attack, said Dr. Ruppert. A healthy lifestyle includes eating a healthy diet, staying at a healthy weight, getting enough physical activity, not smoking or using other forms of tobacco, and limiting alcohol use.

Follow these steps:

People with diabetes have a higher-than-average risk of having a heart attack or stroke. Our free 16-session National Diabetes Prevention Program can help you gain the skills you need to make lifestyle changes to prevent or delay type 2 diabetes, if you are at risk or have been diagnosed with pre-diabetes. The next program begins Wednesday, February 22 from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. in Spring Valley. Call 364-2651 for more information and to find out if you are eligible to participate.
