Chapter 1 Section 3 Do you feel in your gut?
Facts speak louder than words, a great discovery that shocked the medical world. ? ?

If we touch our internal organs with our hands, will our internal organs feel touched?Dr. Harvey's findings may give you the answer.Dr. Harvey lived in the 18th century. ?
In a battle, a soldier named Ed was unfortunately injured. A large piece of muscle on his chest was pulled off, and his heart was exposed. ?
Everyone who saw Ed's injury thought that Ed was bound to die, but Harvey miraculously cured Ed with his excellent medical skills. ?
During the treatment, Harvey found that whenever he touched Ed's heart, Ed didn't seem to know it, so he deliberately asked Ed how he felt after touching, and Ed said he didn't feel anything. ?
Harvey was very excited, so he took Ed to the emperor and said: "I swear in the name of the emperor, the heart does not feel."?
