Heart
Disease #1 Killer of Women
Lord & Taylor hosted a “heart-healthy” breakfast
for executive women to launch the NYC part of a national
campaign for awareness of heart disease as the leading cause
of death in women. Irene Pollin, author and Founder of Medical
Crisis Sytems stated that out of 25,000 women screened over
the years, 40 percent discovered problems that they never
knew about. Dr. Lori Losca, cardiologist at Columbia-Presbyterian
underscored knowing our personal risk factors and exercising
at least 30 minutes per day. Cathy Moriarity-Gentile, known
for her role opposite Robert DeNiro in Raging Bull, urged
women to pay attention to themselves and have screenings.
Donna Hanover graciously presided over the event radiating
an image of health, exercise and sensible eating.#
