The glance was great.
It's good to know more about how your body works.
The heart is very complicated organ.Although I didn't understand well how the heart electricity is generated,this glance was -as I said- useful.
Understanding how the cardiovascular system works in the health helps to better understand what happens when something get wrong, why, and how can we face, avoid, treatment that fault.
I wish for all the best health away from any cardiovascular disease.


and finally:
The next time you feel your pulse just thank GOD.
