Follow me on Instagram at sharpharmade! . Thursday September 29, 2016 is World Heart Day. “Heart Day is part of an international campaign to spread awareness about heart disease and stroke prevention. This is the perfect day to quit smoking, get exercising and start eating healthy – all in the name of keeping your ticker in good working order, and improving the health and well being of people the world over. The World Heart Federation have found that heart disease and strokes are the world’s leading cause of death, killing 17.1 million people every year – that’s more than victims of cancer, HIV and AIDS and malaria. Overeating, lack of exercise, unhealthy diets and high blood pressure, cholesterol and glucose levels are all factors which can trigger heart disease and threaten our own lives, and those of loved ones. Heart Day was set up to drive home the message that heart problems can be prevented. The aim is to improve health globally by encouraging people to make lifestyle changes and promoting education internationally about ways to be good to your heart. This lesson is becoming increasingly relevant as reports of obesity, poor diet and physical inactivity in children and young people become more and more common. Events take place to promote healthy hearts. Charities and other organizations coordinate walks and runs, health checks, public talks, shows and exhibitions to name a few of the interesting and informative events which mark the day. So on Heart Day, get involved, eat your fruit and veg and get outside; both you and your heart will feel the benefits." ^sPm - #sharpharmade Fr 'Days of the Year'. #fit #linkinbio #lpt #wp #fb #tweet #twitter #follow #like #world #heart #worldheartday #ig #insta #share #pop #health #care #tagsforlike #buffer #ticker #awareness #beat #sound #heartbeat #celebratelife . @Instagram @sharpharmade
