Did you know that somebody dies from heart disease every 30 minutes in Australia? That is a shocking statistic we need to change. This month is REDFEB, a month to raise heart health awareness and funding backed by Heart Research Australia (HRA).
Host John Deeks is joined on the podcast today by HRA CEO Nicci Dent, who is working towards that very goal. Heart disease encompasses a range of conditions affecting the function and structure of your heart, including coronary heart disease, arrhythmias, heart failure and valve disease.
Despite the advances in medicine, heart-related conditions are still the leading cause of death, both in Australia and globally. Listen as John and Nicci discuss what you can do to keep your heart in tip-top condition and live longer.
