Investigating family The AHA is committed to reducing the risk
of heart disease. The association encourages everyone to get to
know themselves and their family better. "The more you know
about your family's health history," says the AHA, "the more you
can do to reduce your risk of diabetes and heart
disease."
Heart trackers The AHA provides online tools for helping you
track important information such as your blood glucose, blood
pressure and cholesterol. The more control you exercise over
your health, the better equipped you will be on your next visit
to the doctor.
Information downloads The key to reducing cardiovascular disease
is in your access to information. The more information that is
shared the better you can kick-start your healthier lifestyle.
The AHA's website provides countless of information sheets that

cardiovascular disease, getting treatments, reducing risks, and
living better.
