One in Four Canadians will be affected by heart disease over the course of their lifetime, and today, heart disease is still one of the leading causes of death in Canada.  

While many factors, including genetics, play a role, lifestyle factors like diet and exercise can have a significant impact on your heart health. That’s why we’ve partnered with our Heart Month presenting sponsor, Freson Bros., to bring you nine heart-smart recipes with tips and tricks for eating well and maintaining or improving your heart health.  

The University Hospital Foundation is a champion of Complex Cardiac Care and Research in Alberta 

Diet is just one piece of the puzzle. Research, technology, equipment and resources are also critically important to protecting our hearts from heart disease. The University Hospital Foundation helps to fund all these things, and with donor support, we have played a key role in the building and maintaining of the University of Alberta Hospital’s Mazankowski Alberta Heart Institute – one of North America’s premier centres for complex cardiac care including transplants.
