Welcome To Gloss Magazine's Blog

National Wear Red Day

National Wear Red Day is on Feb. 3, 2006. This is a day when Americans nationwide will take women's health to heart by wearing red to show their support for women's heart disease awareness. More women die of heart disease than all cancers combined, yet only 20 percent of women identify heart disease as the greatest health problem facing women today and most fail to make the connection between its risk factors and their personal risk of developing heart disease.

National Wear Red Day is an annual event held on the first Friday in February. On this day, women and men across the country will unite and wear red in the national movement in order to draw attention to the fact that women are at great risk of developing heart disease. Everyone can participate by showing off a favorite red dress, shirt, tie, or by wearing the Red Dress Pin

Encourage your family, friends, and coworkers to rock RED on February 3rd.

For more information, visit http://www.hearttruth.gov/ or http://www.blackwomenshealth.org/
