...and your heart's gotta have CONTRACTILITY.Loss of contractility is one of the major causes of heart failure, which in turn is most often caused by coronary artery disease (atherosclerosis).
Evolution has come through with an organ that precisely balances literally dozens of factors as it works on our behalf. The heart has intrinsic contractility, unlike other muscles, that initiates its function. That contractility is in turn a function of numerous environmental and metabolic factors. Other organs and functions of the body can do a lot to help maintain our heart's contractility; we can do perhaps the most good by not smoking, not drinking alcohol, not using illegal substances, exercising, maintaining normal body weight--and, yes, treating others with gentleness, care, and love.
Maintain your cardiac contractility this weekend....<3
