Womens-Health.com Supports National Women's Health Week With Fitness Challenge
The online women's health forum, www.Womens-Health.com, will be supporting National Women's Health Week starting on Mother's Day, by offering daily women's health information and forming a virtual team of participants for the 2007 WOMAN Challenge, an 8-week national fitness challenge for women.
Palos Park, IL (PRWEB) May 1, 2007 -- Online women's health community, www.Womens-Health.com, is joining the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office on Women's Health in celebrating National Women's Health Week. In addition to providing women's health information and a supporting community to discuss women's health issues, Womens-Health.com will be assembling a virtual team of women to participate in the WOMAN Challenge, an 8-week national physical activity challenge.
National Women's Health Week is a nationwide initiative that calls attention to the importance of women's health. During the week, families, health organizations, businesses, communities, the government and individuals come together to raise awareness about women's health issues and educate women about simple steps they can take for a longer, healthier and happier life. The theme for National Women's Health Week 2007 is "It's Your Time: Pamper Your Mind, Body and Spirit."
Womens-Health.com will actively participate in National Women's Health Week by launching a virtual team to participate in the 8-week WOMAN fitness challenge, by recruiting active online community members from across the country. The site will also provide quality women's health information, including a daily women's health focus to encourage awareness in all community members and visitors.
"National Women's Health Week is important because it is the one week we set aside to encourage women to take time for themselves," says Anthos Chrysanthou, founder of www.Womens-Health.com. "Often times women are the caregivers for their families and forget to take care of themselves. With National Women's Health Week we remind women that they too need to visit the doctor, make sure their screenings are up-to-date and just take a minute to think about their health."
