À propos de ce contenu audio
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women — yet the symptoms often look very different than they do in men.
In this episode of Baptist Health Talk, cardiologist Dr. Sandra Chaparro from Baptist Health Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute breaks down the unique signs of heart disease in women, including fatigue, nausea, back pain, jaw pain and other symptoms that are often overlooked.
We also discuss:
• How menopause affects your heart
• Why pregnancy and postpartum increase long-term risk
• The role of stress in heart health
• When to start screening
• What heart pain really feels like in women
• The truth about smoking, vaping and heart risk
• The best exercise and diet strategies for prevention
• How AI is helping detect heart disease earlier
One of the biggest takeaways? Know your numbers. Understanding your blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and weight can help you prevent heart disease before symptoms ever appear.
If you feel fine now, that’s great — but prevention starts early.
