In addition, Friday, February 5, 2010 is National Wear Red Day®, where Americans nationwide will take womens’ health to heart by wearing red in support of fighting women’s heart disease. The Red Dress® symbol was created by The Heart Truth® in 2002 as a wakeup call to American women; heart disease is the number one killer of women, just as it is for men.

And what is a more perfect complement to delicious and healthy food, than a great cup of Bigelow Tea!
