In celebration of American Heart Month, the University Health Center will be hosting events next week to raise awareness of heart disease.
From Feb. 22-26, students will be able to attend virtual and in-person Love Your Heart events. Aimee Grindstaff, marketing strategist at Nebraska Medicine, has been hosting the Love Your Heart event for years and said she hopes that students will be more interested this year, so they are able to continue to do the events for years to come.Â
âWhen it comes to heart disease, most people think that it just comes later in life,â Grindstaff said. That is true, but your risk for it starts now as a young adult. We are trying to raise awareness of how your heart behavior now can affect you later in life.â
