It beats faster when stimulated by the eyes

The heart is, by nature, an accelerated organ, its beats are constant and the rhythm should be frequent. It takes on an extra full time job, every 24 hours. The heart, through its doors, that is, ventricles, auricles, arteries, valves and veins, allows blood to pump. Called muscle, it is much more than that. It is one of the life lords of the human body. It is what allows us to live, feel happiness, feel pain or simply feel. It beats faster when stimulated by the eyes, it relaxes during sleep.

But what about when the heart stops? – Death from cardiac arrest is declared. Just like that, in a dry and unglamorous way. Or, as time goes by, it shows signs of tiredness, just like its owner.

The heart is a machine, but its stopping, sooner or later, is inevitable. With the support of cardiologists, an attempt is made to prolong its end. However, the quality of its existence depends almost exclusively on its owner. Therefore, it is essential to take care of your heart.

In Portugal, about 35,000 people die annually from cardiovascular diseases, according to data from the National Health Service. Every year, during the month of May, heart professionals unite in one voice with the aim of raising awareness among all layers of the population to the need to take good care of this gentleman. Despite this evangelization, cardiovascular diseases continue to be the main cause of death and suffering that could be avoided simply by choosing healthier eating habits, encouraged with the benefit of physical activity.
