2026 February

February 2026, February is actually American Heart Month (and closely tied to cardiovascular health, including stroke prevention), I’ve focused the post on heart-stroke connections, prevention during this awareness period, and practical tips for readers (survivors, caregivers, and those at risk)a perfect time to shine a spotlight on cardiovascular health – and that includes stroke prevention. Heart disease and stroke are closely linked: many of the same risk factors (high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, and inactivity) drive both conditions. In fact, up to 80-90% of strokes are preventable through lifestyle changes and medical management.  Whether you’re a stroke survivor working to avoid a recurrence, a caregiver supporting a loved one, or simply someone looking to lower your risk, this month is an opportunity to take meaningful steps toward better brain and heart health.    Feb 6th is actually wear something red day !!   or you could get yourself one of these and support us aswell
