The human heart beats over 100,000 times per day, pumping blood through the body's 75 trillion cells and providing enough energy to drive a truck 20 miles in a single day. The heart circulates blood to the entire body in a matter of seconds, reaching the brain in 8 seconds and the toes in 16 seconds. Plato theorized that reasoning originated in the brain while passion originated in the heart. It is important to take care of your heart since you only get one for free.
