Tea Forte highlights women's heart issues
In recognition of February American Heart Month, Tea Forte, a gourmet tea manufacturer, has launched a special collection of teas to highlight the issue of heart disease among women. The company has teamed up with WomenHeart (the National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease) to introduce a heart shaped box filled with antioxidant-rich green teas to combat heart problems. The special boxes come in small and large sizes and retail for $12 and $20 respectively. According to the company, 42 million women are currently living with or at risk for heart disease in the US and 60 percent of younger women, ages 20-39, have one or more of the risk factors for developing heart disease.
