February is the month to celebrate the people we love. It’s also the month to celebrate heart health. Cardiovascular disease is the single biggest health threat for Americans, and our biggest killer.

This Valentine’s Day, take heart health seriously. If you’re looking for the perfect sweet morsels to share with your special someone, try wrapping up these heart-smart ideas to boost heart health:
- Get sweaty. Schedule a walk around the block or a trip to the gym.
- Feed the soul. Dish up a heart-healthy meal for two.

- Check in. Schedule joint visits with your primary care provider.
