AVAILABILITY OF FAST-FOOD RESTAURANTS AND YOUR HEALTH

             A report from the American Heart Association indicates that people living in neighborhoods with the most fast-food restaurants are 13% more likely to have a stroke than those who live in areas with the fewest restaurants.  Availability of fast-food does have the potential to affect your health.  Fast-food is convenient but strokes are not.  Limiting the times you stop at a fast-food retaurant may help you be well.
