The 8 principles of a heart healthy woman

"When I intentionally began my heart-healthy journey five years ago, many things were happening to me. It was two years after my son died, and I was still fragile - emotionally and mentally. I was through the hormonal tide known as menopause. I was overweight, and my body ached. My numbers (cholesterol, blood sugar, waist/hip ratio) were all going the wrong way. My movement consisted of too much sitting. I was not exactly a poster child for my business as a heart-healthy living expert. For over 25 years, I've been publishing guides for patients and their families to make better choices for life. Now it was my turn to put myself first ... and little did I know that I would need it for the troubles still to come." [P.] 4 of cover.
