3 ways to manage your heart health during the Fall/Winter

According to Northwestern Medicine, keeping your heart healthy during the fall/winter is important. They have put together tips on how you can manage your heart-healthy during the colder months. Here’s how:

• Dress for the weather. Wear layers and especially wear hats, gloves and heavy socks.
• Come inside often. Give yourself breaks to warm up if you’re spending time outside in the cold.
