Mayo Clinic Radio: Women\'s Heart Health

According the American Heart Association, only 1 in 5 women believe heart disease is the greatest threat to their health. The fact is heart disease is the No. 1 cause of death for women and men. Heart disease in women causes 1 in 3 deaths each year — a much larger number than die of cancer. Heart disease doesn’t affect all women alike, and the warning signs for women aren’t the same as they are in men.
