The program continued with a heart healthy Mediterranean-style lunch and presentations by five experts on new heart health-related medical research and guidelines. Topics included scientific progress on a twice-a-year injectable that might eventually reduce the health risks from dangerously high levels of cholesterol. There also was discussion of diet and alcohol issues, intermittent fasting, the use of low-dose aspirin and controlling hypertension.

"And if something doesn't seem right, and they're having any kind of symptom that's happening above their waist, they should go see their doctor for an evaluation," Minissian added. She noted that symptoms often are different for women than for men. When something seems wrong, Minissian added, women should "not take 'no' for an answer until they're certain that they've gotten to the bottom of the problem." Friday's activities came days after the American Heart Association reported that heart disease remains the nation's No.

What's more, among women age 20 and older tracked between 2013 and 2016, 44.7% suffered from some form of cardiovascular disease.

Her mother-the philanthropist, public health advocate and psychotherapist Irene Pollin-who has provided financial support for Cedars-Sinai's Barbra Streisand Women's Heart Center.
