Concerned about your risk of heart attack or stroke? The One Of A Kind personalized health management program was developed by the American Heart Association to help you lower your risk.

The program is free and provides:

• A Web site tailored to your needs using your health and lifestyle information
• A health and behavior assessment
• Support for behavioral change
• A Recipe Center
• Reminder e-mails to increase your motivation
• Current cardiovascular and stroke information

You'll enjoy using One Of A Kind to develop healthier lifestyle choices.

Who should enroll in One Of A Kind?
You — if you want to lower your risk of a heart attack and stroke. The goal of the program is to offer you information, tools and support so you can make lifestyle changes that will cut your risk. This program can help you identify your risk factors and then give you tailored information to help lower them. Even if your risk is low, it can help you stay healthy.

What kind of information will I receive?
All the information you get will be tailored just for you — from health information to tips on staying physically active. We draw upon 50 years of research to give you the right information. Imagine getting information customized just for you on these topics:

• Smoking
• Physical Inactivity
• Nutrition
• Medication Compliance

You'll get not only facts and figures, but information on how to start following a healthier diet, how to increase the physical activity you get and more. And it's all customized to your own needs! We want to make it as easy as possible for you to make good lifestyle changes that you can maintain for a lifetime.

How is the program personalized to me? First, take the time to carefully complete your personal Health and Behavioral Assessment. When you've done that, a unique program based on the information you provide is created. With the accurate information that you give us about your health and lifestyle, family history and personal preferences, information is tailored to your unique profile. Whenever you update your profile, the information is changed and sent to you to reflect those changes.

The program will help you get over the hard parts of making lifestyle changes — such as quitting smoking, following a healthier diet, adding physical activity to your normal routine, and taking your medications as prescribed. You choose to make the changes, and the AFA provides support to assist you.

Many national organizations provide free information on specific areas of health and disease prevention. Since many of these conditions begin to appear when we are older, we've included groups that offer materials on the more common health problems of mature adults.
