Understanding Women’s Heart Health: Prevention, Diabetes & Lifestyle

In celebration of Valentine’s Day and American Heart Month, board-certified cardiologist Dr. Jacqueline Eubany highlights the importance of heart health—especially for women. This episode of Big Blend Radio's "Heart Healthy Living" focuses on prevention, early detection, and the need for greater awareness around women and heart disease.

Dr. Jackie discusses how women often experience unrecognized heart attacks, the seriousness of congenital heart defects, and how conditions like diabetes significantly increase cardiovascular risk. The conversation also explores stress management techniques, the benefits of regular physical activity, and why the Mediterranean diet continues to be a heart-healthy standard.

Beyond diet and exercise, Dr. Jackie emphasizes the powerful role of community, human connection, and mental well-being in supporting overall cardiovascular health.
