blood circulation

n=3


a: Blood circulation ~
b: automatic fountain

What: "Our heart is the most busy organ of our body. It beats 1, 00,000 times a day. Blood circulation is like an automatic fountain where the water springs up to fall down and then gather again to spring up once more. Blood is pumped by the heart into arteries. It then flows through millions of minute vessels throughout the body and pumps back to the heart, through the veins."

Blood Plumbing

a: Blood circulation ~
b: plumbing

What:

"Let us take a moment to discuss what the kidneys do. In several of my previous columns, I use the analogy that our blood circulation is like plumbing with the heart being the pump and the arteries and veins being the pipes. Well, the kidneys are the filter and the drain, which create urine as a way to expel waste products from the body."

a: blood circulation ~
b: cash flow

What:

"Your body's blood circulation is like your cash flow. If you have a very slow cash flow or infrequent supply of cash you may feel stressed about meeting your financial obligations. You probably always feel poor. In the same way your body requires constant supply of fresh blood to carry out daily activities. Without a constant flow of blood, your hands and feet will always feel cold and you will feel lethargic. Acupuncture can help stimulate the body's circulation to reduce the symptoms mentioned above."
