Heart Health - How the Heart Functions
Our heart is the center of our being, faithfully
doing its job pumping blood "the river of life" throughout our entire
circulatory system nourishing our bodies with oxygen and nutrients.
When we take care of our health, it works efficiently;
with out rest and relaxation, from the second we are born, till
the day we die.
If we abuse it through improper diets, smoking,
and leading a sedentary lifestyle it begins to fail. When our heart
fails we get sick and die.
On the following pages you can read about
how the heart functions , and the devastating consequences that
occur when the heart is unable to function properly.
