Heart disease is not a “men’s disease.” It’s the #1 killer of women, yet midlife women get misdiagnosed at higher rates. Here’s the terrifying truth: Over half of women don’t experience the classic “chest pain” warning. Instead, they report: Jaw tightness Shoulder blade pressure Nausea Sudden anxiety or dread Extreme fatigue “Cold sweat” episodes A 2024 study revealed that one in five women waited more than 24 hours to seek help because they didn’t realize these symptoms were cardiac. But prevention is powerful: Strength training twice a week reduces cardiac risk by 20–25%. Omega-3 levels correlate with a 15% reduction in coronary events. Improving sleep duration from 5–6 hours to 7 hours reduces cardiovascular risk by nearly 30%. This isn’t fear-mongering. It’s awareness — the kind that saves lives. #HeartHealth #WomensCardio #MidlifeWellness
