Heart disease and stroke is the world’s No.1 killer for women. In Singapore, 1 in 3 women in die from heart disease and stroke. Many women are still unaware of the severity and extent of the disease. Through the Go Red for Women campaign, SHF aims to educate women on the risk factors of the disease and to encourage them to go for regular health screening.

A healthy lifestyle is the first step to guard against cardiovascular disease. Following a balanced diet can help us to protect ourselves from these diseases and lead a longer and healthier life. To help you in adopting a healthy lifestyle, the SHF has developed a set of Heart Health Principles.
