Millions of Women 'Taking Small Steps for Big Rewards'

CINCINNATI, Jan. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- As part of a national campaign to reach women, Speaking of Women's Health will be holding its Community Event in all 2,435 Wal-Mart Supercenters across America on Saturday, January 12 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., to teach, encourage and inspire women to take control of their health, and obtain information on small steps that can result in big rewards for their overall health and well-being.

The beginning of the year is an ideal time to make a change for a healthier life, but making a change concerning one's health can often be a challenging task. Studies show that changing behavior is a process and taking small steps can be a great way to start down a successful path that can result in big rewards. Millions of women have already taken a small step by participating in Speaking of Women's Health Events, and earned big rewards. In fact, 85 percent of women screened at events said they increased their knowledge on risk factors for heart disease and 61 percent discovered they had more than three risk factors for heart disease -- the number 1 killer of women.

"I am thrilled to be part of this important health initiative that provides millions of women with essential information to help them take charge of their health and potentially prevent serious health conditions," said Michael F. Roizen, M.D., noted health expert and co-author of YOU-The Owner's Manual, who is partnering with Speaking of Women's Health to encourage women to attend the event. "I hope women who attend are empowered to make small changes that will benefit their health and improve their lives."

Women attending the Speaking of Women's Health Community Event, one of the largest single-day, free events focused on female health and wellness, will receive complimentary product samples from Speaking of Women's Health's national sponsors and a free book, Love Notes to Our Moms and Other
