There were some surprising facts in this book that made it really interesting. I think anyone with a beating heart could learn something from this book. It also discusses the challenges to making greater strides in medical treatment for heart conditions around the world. It‘s really amazing what this little, fist sized muscle in your chest can do.

GingerAntics I definitely recommend, but it is a little more scientific than some other popular books about human systems. #SianEHarding #ExquisiteMachine #TheHeart 7d

No citation was given for this statistic, but I would certainly be interested in hearing more about this. That really seems like a lot.

julesG I guess recent events might have an influence on that. 1w

Bookwormjillk I would also like to see the source and what it is based on. And is that global? 1w

Bookwomble Here's some UK data you might find interesting. The life expectancy of the UK population is the only developed nation to be in decline, widely considered to be a consequence of 2010 government Austerity policies that protected the wealthy at the expense of the general public, women being most affected. The 2004 forecast for life expectancy of those born in 2023 was downgraded in 2022 from 94 to 88 years. Thanks capitalists! Data link below 👇 7d
