Heart disease is the leading cause of death in both men and women in the U.S.  Yet most of the cardiovascular disease illness leading to premature death is preventable, if we simply implement the knowledge we already have in our daily lives.  Too often heart disease in both sexes, especially women, is misdiagnosed or undertreated, leading to extended illness, disability, and even avoidable early death.  Come learn how you can change this picture in your life and those of your loved ones.  Dr. Judith Banister, Ph.D. demographer and expert on the causes of disease and death, will enlighten us and lead a discussion on heart disease prevention and management.  For more info:
