Happy Heart Month
Although it’s February and everyone feels that it’s the month that love is in the air, here in Kansas and other parts of the country it’s three-degree temperatures and snow! Now that the celebrated day of all things related to love has come and gone, there’s one thing we must remember. Our hearts.
February is known as American Heart Month. This organ, the size of your fist, serves us well and remains true to us more so than any lover or spouse could ever dream of doing for us. For example, here are a few facts I learned while researching the Cleveland Clinic website.
The heart pumps two gallons of blood throughout our bodies per day.
The heart can continue to beat even after it’s disconnected from the body.
The blue whale has the largest heart. It weighs 1500 pounds!
People can suffer from a broken heart. It is the result of life situations that can trigger temporary heart failure.
So, take care of your heart, so it can take care of you
