Those of you who follow the HairBlues blog, or have listened to my Wellness Connections podcast, are aware that I am an Open Heart Surgery survivor, now 27 years strong.
I am always on the lookout for information that I can share about the progress of heart health advancements.
There is no doubt that a good medical evaluation, and doctor can change your Life and really make a difference to a person who has been affected by heart health issues.
Research continues to be forthcoming, as is in the case of the FAITH App, (Fostering African American Improvement in Total Health), which I learned about recently. Let me be clear, Apps are NOT suggested to replace good medical advice. However, the FAITH app is good news worth sharing. In a study Mayo Clinic researchers evaluated the effectiveness of a culturally relevant mobile app designed to improve heart health among African Americans in faith communities.

Every year in February we call attention to Black History and Celebrate the causes and progress that have been made.

Of course, Black History is a continuous topic of re-calculating the plight and progress of African-Americans. Just recently the term “Enslaved” has been a topic of conversations and correctness regarding the lack of entitlement to freedom in the course of the African-American experience.
