Presented by Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corporation Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women in the U.S., taking the life of one in three women – almost one woman every minute. However, research shows that 80 percent of cardiac events in women are preventable and linked to poor choices involving diet, exercise and smoking. That’s why the American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women® is helping women speak up for their hearts and change this statistic by offering a free 12-week makeover, the Go Red BetterU Challenge, sponsored by Central Hudson. Twelve lucky participants will be selected to participate in the 12-week challenge. Each participant will receive: Baseline & 12-week medical readings by Health Quest Medical Practice 3-month membership to Gold’s Gym – LaGrange Personal training with Gold’s Gym Nutrition advice from a medical professional Supermarket shopping outing Group support from other BetterU participants The power, resources and tools of GoRedForWomen.org Participants will be photographed before and after the 12-weeks, interviewed by media, asked to write about their experiences on the Poughkeepsie Journal’s BetterU Blog and help us celebrate the program by attending as our guests at the Go Red for Women Luncheon on November 9, 2017. With Go Red BetterU, you’ll learn smart strategies and gain new information on improving and maintaining your health, along with the encouragement and advice of local coaches. Each week will focus on a different area to follow for a complete heart makeover. Live longer and stronger by taking 12 weeks to invest in your health!
