Health Tip of the Month

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women, but it is controllable and preventable.

Every journey begins with one step, whether it’s climbing a mountain or preventing heart disease.

February is American Heart Month, and Butler County Public Health is offering tips for better heart health. 

Every year, about 715,000 Americans have a heart attack, and about 600,000 people die from heart disease –about one out of every four deaths.
