| Dear E-newsletter Subscriber,
A health-savvy reader like you knows that heart disease is very serious. Heart disease kills more of us than all forms of cancer combined. It's the No. 1 killer in the United States, and no one — no one — is immune.
And yet advances in medicine and in self-care give you far more control over your heart health than you may realize. My name is Martha Grogan, a cardiologist at Mayo Clinic since 1995. Treating heart patients is only one part of my job. I'm also an educator – of medical students, and of patients. I'm writing today with the great news that, in most cases, heart disease is preventable and treatable. Mayo Clinic is a global leader in cardiac care and treatment. Now we've written a comprehensive book to provide you with a clear, simple, effective program to enjoy a healthy heart for life. Mayo Clinic Healthy Heart for Life is not only for those who know they have heart disease — it will prove to be of potentially lifesaving value to them. It is really dedicated to anyone who wants to enjoy a healthy heart at any age and the extraordinary health and lifestyle benefits that go with it. Improving your heart health and reducing your risk of heart disease are two central goals of Mayo Clinic Healthy Heart for Life. The book identifies all the factors Mayo Clinic doctors know you can use to achieve those ends, organized into 10 easy-to-follow steps. This book helps you start making the changes that will improve your heart health. You can start small.

They're often part of routine activities that you do every day anyway. - What's your chance of a heart attack in the next 10 years?
