February is American Heart Month, a time when all people—especially women—are encouraged to focus on their cardiovascular health. This Heart Month, we are encouraging women to listen to their hearts and speak up for their health. Women in the United States are experiencing unacceptable and avoidable heart-related illness and death, and nearly half of U.S. women do not recognize that heart disease is the leading cause of death for women. Growing evidence suggests many factors that damage the heart or blood vessels may also damage the brain and increase our risk for developing Alzheimer's and related dementias (ADRD). What is good for your heart is good for your brain. Make it a 2024 goal to decrease smoking, manage blood pressure and diabetes, increase physical activity, and eat a heart-healthy diet. #hearthealth #prevention #dementia #alzheimersdisease #publichealth

End Diabetes Stigma. This week is Dietitian’s week. The theme is nourishing mind, body and brain, and as a dietitian working in the area of diabetes, this aspect of nutrition is vital. Providing guidance and dietary advice to my clients with diabetes goes beyond numbers and clinical guidelines. Care must also be provided in a respectful, supportive way, without bias that does not add burden to diabetes management. So, I’m bridging this dietitian’s week theme with the campaign to End Diabetes Stigma. By taking this pledge, I am committed to create a more compassionate and respectful world for people with diabetes, free from diabetes stigma and discrimination, and the harms they inflict. For more insight into the campaign to End Diabetes Stigma and Discrimination can be found here : https://lnkd.in/gGYPdMWN Nutrition in diabetes care is about physical, mental and emotional health. #MindBodyBrain #EndDiabetesStigma
