Strong Heart Study - Arizona

Let’s meet Goliath, the Ge’e Komkjid! 🐢 We can be heart healthy like him by remembering health progress can be slow but eating plenty of fruits and veggies can help.

Small, consistent, and measurable changes are the most effective way to achieve these long-term health gains.

Regular progress, such as consistent exercise and improved nutrition, lowers blood pressure, improves sleep, and reduces risks of obesity and chronic illnesses.

Achieving milestones reduces stress, boosts self-esteem, increases motivation, and improves mental clarity.

Acknowledge, record, and reward progress, even if it is slow.

* Ge’e Komkjid means big tortoise 🐢 in the O’odham Language
