Today's site offers a possibly overlooked organization when searching for
information about maintaining a healthy heart. Gentle Subscribers will find a
wealth of trustworthy and validated material at the American Heart
Association's own site, in this instance focused on specific heart related
conditions.
"Before the American Heart Association existed, people with heart disease were
thought to be doomed to complete bed rest -- or destined to imminent death. ...
But a handful of pioneering physicians and social workers believed it didn't
have to be that way. ... that scientific research could lead the way to better
treatment, prevention, and ultimately a cure. ... Learn the facts about heart
conditions and stroke so you can increase your confidence in making changes to
improve and maintain your health."- from the website
With an emphasis on a variety of concerns pertinent to heart issues, the Health
Topics section covers subjects germane to all. Searchable and browsable via a
convenient drop down list, the site provides a helpful alphabetical array.
Cardiovascular topics include Arrhythmia, Heart Murmurs, and Atrial
Fibrillation, along with details on common health terms such as High Blood
Pressure, Cholesterol, and Stroke. Each topic leads to detailed content on
various aspects of a condition, generally accompanied by clarifying animations
and sound advice. Risk, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Monitoring, and overall Prevention
and Treatment are among the areas typically explored for many conditions.
