Keeping Your Heart Strong

Press your hand to your heart and feel that beat under your skin and ribs. Your heart, smaller than a fist, keeps the rest of your body going by pumping blood from head to toe. Your heart also secretes hormone that regulate blood pressure. But what happens when your once strong heart turns weak and fail? How can you keep your hearts strong? In conjunction with Heart Failure Awareness Day (May 8-10), we discuss heart health and heart failure with Professor John McMurray, Professor of Cardiology at the Institute of Cardiovascular and Medical Sciences, University of Glasgow.
