Did you know that, on any given day, your heart beats roughly 100,000 times and your blood travels about 12,000 miles as it circulates throughout your body?

Did you know the average heart pumps more that a gallon of blood a minute?

Did you know a kid’s heart is about the size of a fist… and an adult’s heart is the size of two fists?
