Irish Heart Foundation's Nutrition Council
The Irish Heart Foundation is the national charity dedicated to fighting heart disease and stroke. Today in Ireland more people die from heart and stroke-related illnesses than from cancer, road deaths and suicide combined. Against this background we work to bring hope, relief and a better future to families all over Ireland. We work in hospitals, schools and workplaces to support, educate and train people to save lives. We support pioneering medical research, campaign for improved patient care, and promote positive public health strategies.
