Herbal Remedies for Heart Problems

Our heart is a hollow cone shaped muscle which is located between our lungs and behind the sternum. The Heart acts as a pump in our circulatory system to provide the continuous circulation of our blood through the whole body. This circulation involves both pulmonary circulation as well as systemic circulation. A Systemic circulation involves circulation to and from the body while pulmonary circulation is the circulation of the blood to and from the lungs.
