Fixing our Society Race Mahaffey & Parker Brotman

Here's one idea to improve cardiovascular health in America...

What do we have change? In 2010, it was estimated that the United States spent over $93 billion on high blood pressure What if we spent it on prevention?

What will we change? We would take the money spent on high blood pressure and use it on things to cure it such as: o Sidewalks o Treadmills in offices o Bike paths o Advertisements

How will this help? It will help encourage physical activity It will help to improve work in offices It will improve work in school It will help improve cardiovascular health!
