The heart is a very forgiving organ. Over the years, he has patiently endured smoking, a fatty diet and lack of exercise. However, if we do not strengthen our hearts, he may rebel, and this must not be allowed to happen.
The heartpumpsbloodfor 24 hours, which carries oxygen, hormones and nutrients to all cells in the body. Thereforecardiovascular diseasesreduce our quality of life. Thanks to the heart, the metabolic components are removed from the cells and transferred to the appropriate organs, where they are utilized or further transformed. The blood from the heart flows through the arteries and capillaries, and returns to it through the veins. So it is a closed system, which - when it is functional - ensures good condition and well-being.
The way to a young heart
In children and he althy young people, arteries have a large cross-section, and their walls are flexible and smooth from the inside. Thanks to this, they contract and relax freely, and the blood flows undisturbed. The heart then works steadily and calmly. Over the years, as a result of the natural aging process of the body, all vessels harden - they become less contractile and elastic. Particles of fat, protein and calcium s alts accumulate on the inner walls. For this process to be as slow as possible, the heart needs support. We can give them to him by reaching for drugs that support his work. However, this does not release us from physical activity, he althy eating, relaxation and rest.
