Count Cardiac, the Heart Disease

The Threat

Count Cardiac is a smooth-talking vampire who feeds on tired, overworked hearts. He creeps in when people sit too still and eat too much salt, slowly draining the heart's strength until it can't keep up. But he can't stand the things that make a heart strong — a good daily walk, the right medication, low-sodium meals, and a healthy lifestyle send him fleeing back into the shadows.

How To Defeat Count

  • Walking
  • Medication
  • Low Sodium
  • Healthy Living

Each of these is a real, everyday habit. Stack a few together and this villain doesn't stand a chance — that's the whole idea behind the Strong Striders.
