Do you know your risk for heart disease? Did you know narrowing of the arteries is not the biggest culprit for a heart attack? Did you know you can request a blood test to determine your risk of a heart attack? Most likely, you answered no to most of these questions, as did I! Featured guest Estella Harrington shares her insight into heart disease and how her Guard-A-Heart Foundation is helping to save lives and increase our awareness.

Guard a Heart Foundation invites you to join us for this exciting event.
Guard A Heart, a foundation dedicated to raising awareness about heart disease prevention, announced that it will be presenting the first Guardian of Hearts Award to Larry King in recognition of his contribution to saving lives through The Larry King Cardiac Foundation. The award will be presented at a private pre-Oscar party to be held at the Avalon Theater in Hollywood on February 25, 2012. This invitation-only event will include foreign dignitaries, politicians & celebrities.
Also being honored will be Dr. Louis Ignarro, co-recipient of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for demonstrating the signaling properties of nitric oxide to improve cardiovascular health and prevent heart disease. His ground-breaking work— the basis for his 2005 best-selling book, NO More Heart Disease— established Dr. Ignarro as perhaps the world’s leading authority on the nutritional approach to cardiac wellness.
The exclusive gala represents the launch of Guard A Heart’s “Know Your Risk, Save A Live” campaign to raise awareness about the importance of effective risk assessment in preventing heart attacks. Douglas Harrington, M.D., CEO of Aviir Heart Laboratories, Phil Tsao, Associate Professor of Cardiology and Tom Quertermous, M.D., Head of Cardiology Research at Stanford University will present the award to Mr. Larry King.
