• Cardiovascular health is on the decline. One step in the right direction is to understand how the heart works
• The heart is responsible for sending oxygen-rich blood to every extremity of our body. The human heart is a four-chamber heart. Two of these are at the lower level called the left and right ventricles. The upper chambers are called the left and right atria

• The heart beats about 75 times per minute
