Did you know that you can check your heart at home?
We'll tell you about a simple test for which you only need a bowl of water.
How to check your heart at home
Pour ice water into a bowl and immerse your hand in the water for one minute.
Cold water causes vasoconstriction and increases the load on the heart.
If the fingertips become whitish or slightly bluish, there are problems with blood circulation.
You can also check your heart by climbing 60 steps.
With a healthy heart, this should take no more than 40-45 seconds. Increased heart rate, shortness of breath, and chest pain indicate heart problems.
