” I am a BetterU participant, and so grateful to get to know your gym. I've had the Want2Lose for a long time. Today I finally felt the Will2Lose when I turned into your parking lot, and felt excited! Keith, Norma and Katie are amazing - encouraging, and willing to believe in me until I believe in myself. Thank you for being there:)” ~ Jody Stokhamer

What Causes heart disease? Heart disease affects the blood vessels and cardiovascular system. Numerous problems can result from this, many of which are related to a process called atherosclerosis, a condition that develops when plaque builds up in the walls of the arteries. This buildup narrows the arteries, making it harder for blood to flow through. If a blood clot forms, it can stop the blood flow. This can cause a heart attack or stroke.
