World Heart Day “Team Up For Healthy Hearts” To Hui Yi
THE theme for this year’s World Heart Day (30 September 2007) is Team Up For Healthy Hearts. This year’s theme recognizes the important role of families play in the heart-health of their children, all the way through to adulthood. Children need all the help they can get to give them a healthy foundation for the future. Families and communities are urged to encourage each other to develop heart-healthy habits for this year’s World Heart Day celebrations. Heart disease and stroke is the world’s largest killer, claiming 17.5 million lives a year – 80% in low- and middle-income countries.
