Today is national wear-red day, and the American Heart Association (AHA) is bringing awareness to heart disease and strokes in women.
The association says heart disease is the number one killer of women in the U.S. and it takes more lives than all forms of cancer combined. They say by building healthy habits, women can lower their chances of developing the disease.
