13 Things That Are Good for Your Heart

Ladies Home Journal 
has a great article on eating properly for you heart
and really with 13 ideas you are sure to find several you will like.

1. Think Red

Strawberries, raspberries, watermelon, cranberries, pomegranates, tomatoes, red chili peppers, red wine, and red grapes: These vermilion fruits and veggies contain lycopene—a carotenoid that gives foods their bright color—and flavenoids, powerful antioxidants that help prevent cell damage. Both of these phytochemicals have been shown to help reduce the risk of heart disease, says seasonal-food expert Laura McIntosh, host of the television show Bringing It Home with Laura McIntosh.
"These powerful antioxidants keep your heart healthy, and adding some vitamin C increases the power of the flavenoids," McIntosh says. "So bring out the citrus, cabbage, spinach, and cantaloupe too!"

2. Be a Spice Girl  3. Indulge in Heart-Healthy Luxuries  ( found this interesting because one of the things I was told was NO smoking and stay away from alcohol )  4. Have a Cuppa  5. Walk More (Even in the House) 6. Dance, Dance, Dance  7. Love Those Pearly Whites  8. Take Charge of Your Heart  9. Get a VAP with Your Pap  10. Take a Hibernation Holiday  11. Don't Worry, Be Happy   12. Lead with Your Heart  13. Connect with Girlfriends

I am not sure of their sources but I agree with several of their points 

My Sweet Little Celes

Oh My Gosh...
I love this little girl.



I love every moment that I get to spend with her.
Guess What Color She Will Be Wearing On Friday???

She Is Looking Good!

Kira has her curves!!!!
She is looking GREAT!!!
She is just wishing the BIG curve on the front would
be in her arms and not her belly.

The little Gringanda is due on the 4th...
What day do you think she will arrive????

3 Generations of needing "Go Red"

Grandmother, Mother and Daughter
I did not know my mom's mother,  my grandmother, she passed away in 1948, my mom was only 6 years old.  
 Her name, Hazel Christine Freeman Berryhill she died of HEART FAILURE.              
 My mom , Geneva Mary Berryhill Angle  passed away in 1994...of HEART FAILURE.                                 
   I had my first heart attack in 2004
 and received my new amazing heart in May of 2010.
I hope with the knowledge that I,  Janiece A. Burgess have received from the AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION, 
and the Go Red  Program
I can be the last link of women in my family having heart attacks or disease
What women or men in your family have had a heart attack.

FYI...
a women's heart attack does not usually display the same symptoms that men do.
I never had chest pains, a numb arm or even color changes in my skin or lips....
almost 1 month later did we realize I had had a major heart attack.
WOMEN, See A Cardiologist BE SURE your heart is working the way you need it to.
I love you
