Heart Health Month is here, and we are ready to start the party! Every February, people around the world celebrate Heart Health Month, raising awareness for cardiovascular disease and celebrating the body’s most vital organ— the heart.
Cardiovascular disease is one of the deadliest killers in the world. On average, around 17.9 million people worldwide die of cardiovascular disease each year— accounting for 31% of all deaths.
Although the numbers are high, together, we can make small changes every day to help prevent heart disease. Controlling and lowering risk factors can help in the long run, and there’s a variety of ways to do so:
• Maintain a healthy body weight
• Quit smoking or avoid secondhand smoke
• Maintain healthy cholesterol levels and blood pressure numbers
• If you drink alcohol, drink only in moderation
• Eat health
• Be active
Synergy has two important goals for heart health month: to support healthy hearts and celebrate its amazing presence in the body. As your body’s hardest-working muscle, your heart deserves special care and attention.
As a celebration we are encouraging everyone to wear red this Friday, February 5th for the Wear Red Day. How will you be rocking your best RED looks?
Show the world you care about heart health by wearing your boldest, brightest red— if you’ve got it, we want to see it!
Need some motivation? Think of someone you know who would be a lot happier if only his or her heart was healthier. You love that person. Wear red on February 5 for them.
Need MORE motivation? We’ll be doing some stellar prize giveaways in February! The first challenge will be on Wear Red Day, February 5. Here’s how to enter:
1. Snap a selfie or a groupie showing off your radical red outfits.
2. Submit your image to our Google Survey HERE

This month, we renew our pledge to do our part to raise awareness about heart care, to make a difference in the health of others, and to share helpful information and motivation when it comes to your beautiful heart.
