02/20/23 • 36 min
Top cardiologist Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum wants you to know that if you have a heart, you need to think about heart disease—the #1 killer of women in the U.S.
We dive into the steps, tests, and lifestyle choices EVERY woman should take to protect their heart for the long haul. And we explore the impact of menopause, stress, and Covid on women’s heart health.
Jam-packed with heart-health tips, including the heart-healthy snacks Dr. Steinbaum reaches for daily, a favorite get-up-and-get-going exercise for heart health that anyone can do at any age, we also learn more about the heart-health app she is bringing to market as the founder of the heart-tech company Adesso.
As a former Director of Women’s Cardiovascular Prevention, Health, and Wellness at Mt. Sinai Heart in New York City, and the Director of Women’s Heart Health at Northwell Lenox Hill, and a Today Show and GMA favorite, Dr. Steinbaum offers us 30-minutes of do-not-miss heart smarts from one of the country’s top docs.
