Abstract

Ancient civilization, in one way or another, has linked the heart and heart rate to life. But what about modern cardiology? Is there any link today? Indeed, according to a fascinating theory, yet to be proven, living beings are born with a predisposed number of heartbeats. Those with a particularly high heart rate have a lower life expectancy than those with a lower heart rate.
