Heart and Blood Vessels - Supplements for the cardiovascular system
The cardiovascular system of the human body consists of the heart, the blood vessels and the blood and is also called the cardiovascular system. We can distinguish two types of blood vessels, namely arteries and veins. The system ensures that blood is pumped around, transporting nutrients and waste products, oxygen, carbon dioxide and hormones throughout the body. The amount of blood in an adult body depends on factors such as age, gender and weight. On average, an adult woman has 4.5 litres of blood in her body and an adult man has 5.6 litres. This blood is pumped around by the heart with an average heart rate of between 60 and 100 beats per minute. Did you know that the total length of all arteries, blood vessels and capillaries in the human body is approximately 100,000 kilometres? There is a lot you can do yourself to keep your heart and blood vessels in good condition, such as avoiding stress, not smoking and getting enough exercise. With just a little support you can often give your heart and blood vessels a boost!
