What don’t I know about my heart?

• The heart beats 100,000 times a day, approximately forty million times a year - nearly three billion pulsations in seventy years. It pumps over 100 gallons of blood per hour through a vascular
  system about sixty thousand miles in length (over two times the circumference of the earth).
• The heart's electromagnetic field is approximately 5000 times greater in strength than the field produced by the brain.
• The heart has its own brain with over 40,000 neurons which include every type of neuron found in the brain.
• The heart communicates with the brain in at least four different ways; neurological, chemical, blood pressure wave, and electromagnetic. The heart sends more signals to the brain, than the brain does to the heart.
• The heart starts beating in the unborn fetus before the brain has been formed.
• The rhythmic beating patterns of the heart directly affect the electrical activity of the higher brain centers causing inhibition or facilitation of our thinking process.
