How to Lower Your Stroke Risk – April 13
Since up to 80% of strokes can be prevented, it’s crucial to know the simple steps that can lower your risk. Knowing your stroke risk factors, following your doctor’s recommendations and adopting a healthy lifestyle are the best steps you can take to prevent a stroke. You can learn how to manage your risk factors for stroke at the next Health Matters talk on April 13. The topic is “Stroke Prevention.” It’s important to be able to recognize the signs and symptoms of stroke. Aging and a family history can increase your risk for a stroke, but women in midlife are twice as likely as men to have a stroke. The best way to prevent a stroke is to eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly and avoid smoking and excessive consumption of alcohol. If you’ve already had a stroke, preventing a second one is a top priority. There is no charge to attend Health Matters events, but space is limited and reservations are required. To register, call 216.767.8435 Monday through Friday between 9 am and 5 pm or go to UHhospitals.org/HealthMatters. Join your neighborhood experts on the second Wednesday of each month for these health-minded talks, which are held at the same 9 UH locations – UH Ahuja Medical Center, UH Bedford Medical Center, UH Conneaut Medical Center, UH Elyria Medical Center, UH Geauga Medical Center, UH Geneva Medical Center, UH Parma Medical Center, UH Portage Medical Center and UH Richmond Medical Center. Coming up on May 11 is “Living with Diabetes.” There is no cure for diabetes, but it can be managed. After a diagnosis, learning about diabetes is the first step toward feeling better and living a longer, healthier life. Participate in the conversation on social media using #UHHealthMatters.
