"Heart disease is the #1 killer of women in the U.S., yet women are still not receiving the same in-hospital treatment that men do for heart attacks and as a result, they may be more likely to die. In an effort to address this problem, Bayer Healthcare LLC, the makers of Bayer Aspirin, and WomenHeart, the nation's only national organization solely dedicated to advancing women's heart health through advocacy, community education and patient support, have teamed up during American Heart Month with the launch of Strong @Heart. The Strong @Heart campaign encourages women to understand and advocate for early detection and prevention of heart attack and recurrent stroke. Now more than ever, women need to understand their risk factors for heart disease and advocate for their own heart health by being smarter, stronger and optimally empowered."
