heart health resources: special stuff for kids

We've often heard it said that "heart disease begins in childhood." And, this is certainly true.

​

Perhaps, instead, we should adopt the idea that "heart health" begins in childhood!  Eating right, being physically active and reducing screen time are the basic ways we can help our children learn to be healthy for life. We also have to consider environmental factors like where we live, our family's traditions, culture and habits and where your child goes to school can also have an impact on their health and wellness.
