Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:

In Week One we assess the Cardiovascular System-Blood and the Heart. We discuss what blood is made of as well as its cell types. Finally, we will discuss the structure of the heart and how that structure impacts the heart’s functions.

Consider the reading and activities that you have completed this week.

If someone came to you and said they wanted to strengthen their heart, what suggestions would you give them? What would be your number one choice of a way to keep blood pressure at a healthy level? Why?
