Begin with a heartbeat
A quiet rhythm. A remarkable journey.
Your heart keeps blood moving. Where does that journey lead?
The heart is a muscular pump. Blood travels through a network of arteries, capillaries and veins, carrying oxygen and nutrients and carrying waste products away.
The lungs and heart work together: blood travels to the lungs for gas exchange, then returns to the heart to be pumped around the body.
A heartbeat is a beginning, not a complete picture of cardiovascular health. Follow the flow to blood pressure, or follow oxygen back to a breath.

THE CONNECTION
The heart moves blood; the lungs exchange gases. Circulation connects the two.
