Are you heart smart?
Manage episode 329771547 series 2438619
With the stress of COVID, virtual schooling, WFH and everything else the past two years has thrown at us, it’s easy to mistake pandemic related symptoms with a much more serious threat – cardiovascular disease. Once we hit our 40’s, our bodies produce less estrogen which means less protection for our hearts. It’s a silent disease because high cholesterol doesn’t give any symptoms. We know this because Jacquie found out the hard way by getting bloodwork for an HRT assessment. That’s when we learned that our cholesterol rises with the onset of perimenopause. As we’ve said before, what you don’t know can hurt you. It’s important for us to understand our hearth health, the signs, and symptoms to beware of and how to maintain a stronger heart.
In this episode, Dr. Beth Abramson MD is Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Toronto joins us to talk about women and heart health. Dr. Abramson is the Paul Albrechtsen Professor in Cardiac Prevention and Women’s Health in the Division of Cardiology at St. Michael’s Hospital, University of Toronto.
