When you're sick or scared, we can ALL struggle to understand health information. Even doctors do. That's why we create resources that explain what things might mean for you, what you can do next, and ways to get the care you need.

Meet Cardi, 34. Just a lonely heart looking for love on Pulsr. 💔

Cardi's tired of sitting around all day. Just like your heart, Cardi gets sick if they sit most of the day. Luckily, any movement helps! Walk, stretch, take the stairs, dance. You don't need heart-core workouts!

Your lungs keep getting all the credit - how inSPIREing! But really it's hundreds of millions of tiny alveoli doing the gas exchange.

Never heard of alveoli? You're not alone! These tiny air sacs where oxygen goes into your blood and carbon dioxide goes out.

Why are there two blood pressure numbers?

Top Number (Systolic) - Your heart squeezes and pushes blood through your arteries Bottom Number (Diastolic) - Your heart relaxes and refills with blood between beats
