Your heart beats nearly 100,000 times a day. That’s 100,000 good reasons to take care of it.

Purdue Extension’s Be Heart Smart program is combating heart disease—the #1 cause of death for men and women in Indiana.  Designed to help adults prevent heart disease, this four-session program offers simple, practical changes to achieve a heart-healthy lifestyle.

Be Heart Smart is a lecture-based program for individuals who want to learn more about preventing heart disease by making heart-healthy lifestyle changes.  This program will teach participants how to monitor risk factors for heart disease and how to make simple changes to their daily routine that can improve their heart health.  This program, comprised of four lessons, will be taught each week by Linda Curley, Extension Educator, Health and Human Sciences.

For more information about the Be Heart Smart program, please contact Linda Curley, lcurley@purdue.edu or 219-755-3240.
