The Circulatory System
The Circulatory System is madeup of the heart, the veins and the arteries. The heart is a major organ in playing a part in our lives. It pumps blood through the body. Blood cells carry vitamins to the rest of our body.
Eating healthy, low fat and low cholesterolfoods, as well as exercise prevents heart disease.

First the food you eat is mixed with saliva in your mouth until it is soft enough to chew. Then it goes down the esophagus into the stomach were acids break it up even smaller. Then it goes into the small intestine to have the nutrients pulled out. Next anything that is left is waste so it begins it’s journey through the large intestine, then to the rectum and finally to the anus.
Fact: To much alcohol hurts the liver.
