The heart is an amazing muscle about the size of your fist. The right side takes in blood and pumps it to the lungs and the left side does the reverse. The heart beats an astounding 100,000 times a day and pumps just over 7,500 litres of blood through an average adult body daily.
A beating heart pumps blood through the circulatory system, a complex tangle of vessels that carries blood through the body. Arteries, capillaries and veins are three types of blood vessels that provide almost 97,000 kilometers of tubing for blood to flow through.
A bounteous, red heart is the universal symbol of life and love. Without it we’d have neither. The heart is a complex organ and is susceptible to damage and injury. That’s why it’s important to protect it and keep it as healthy and strong as possible.
