Our smart brain and its mysteries

For me the organ most important of our human body is the heart (very important for circulatory system) because with this organ we can say that we are alive, just with his bump we can differentiate a dead man with an alive person.

This muscular organ is very important because pumps blood through the blood vessels of the circulatory system and is essential because blood provides the body with oxygen and nutrients, as well as assists in the removal of metabolic wastes. You can find this organ in humans between the lungs, in the middle compartment of the chest and if you put your hand on that part you can feel your heartbeat.

For all the functions that the heart does maybe you might think that is a bigger organ like small intestine but isn’t like that because his size is just like a fist!

If you don’t take care about your heart, this small and important organ could bring you so many cardiovascular diseases like coronary artery disease, also known as ischemic heart disease, is caused by atherosclerosis (a build-up of fatty material along the inner walls of the arteries), Heart failure, Cardiac arrhythmias and so many others! , but regrettably this disease do not have symptoms.
 As you can see heart disease is a major cause of death, accounting for an average of 30% of all deaths in 2008, globally so if you don’t want to be part of this percentage you must have to control your blood pressure, decrease your cholesterol (eating more healthy and less fast food)and get enough exercise with your family and friends! And just with those steps you can have a long and healthy live!
