The vascular system consists of arteries, veins and other blood vessels that deliver oxygen and nutrient-rich blood to every cell in your body. The arteries and veins can become damaged over time, hindering blood flow and increasing the risk of chronic disease.
Dr Oz: What Happens When You Die? Have you ever wondered what it really feels like when you die? Dr Oz claimed that, with the help of new research, we have a better look than ever before at what happens during the seven minutes of life. During the final minutes before death, the person will look as if theyâre sleeping. The heart slows, their pulse weakens, and their blood pressure drops.
Your cells burst open. The process in which the human body decomposes starts just minutes after death. When the heart stops beating, we experience algor mortis, or the âdeath chill,â when the temperature of the body falls about 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit an hour until it reaches room temperature. Almost immediately, the blood becomes more acidic as carbon dioxide builds up.
