<h2>Pericardium </h2>

Explanation:

Pericardium is the fibrous tissue that surrounds the heart and the roots of the great blood vessels

The pericardium's outer coat is called the parietal pericardium which is tough and thickened, loosely cloaks the heart, and is attached to the central part of the diaphragm and the back of the breastbone

Its inner coat is called the visceral pericardium or epicardium which is double, with one layer closely adherent to the heart and the other lining the inner surface of the outer coat

The intervening space between these layers is filled with pericardial fluid

This small amount of fluid acts as a lubricant to allow normal heart movement within the chest

Complex carbohydrates, such as fruits and vegetables, are universally viewed as healthier than simple carbohydrates like sugar.
kramer
I'm not a biologist, so I don't know the actual answer. But my best guess is that there is more in fruits and vegetables than just simple sugars or even complex carbohydrates. There are vitamins for example. Some of the vegetables have simple proteins which are much easier to break down that the complex ones found in meat.
