Fight Hypertension

As a first step, let's talk about your heart.

Your heart is an organ, usually the muscle tissue. It is a pump. In very simple terms, his task is incoming blood from the body is low that oxygen and pump it to lungs.

As It passes through the lungs removed the blood oxygen and carbon dioxide fetches. Then the blood goes back to the heart and the heart pumped blood oxygen rich, to the whole body.
�
blood is flowing through the arteries from the heart go to different parts of the body, and through the veins on his way back into the heart.

The heart pumps blood through the rhythmic contraction of the four chambers in the heart. It is the strong contractions of the lower two chambers (the so-called Chambers) that the pumping of blood and away from the heart to different parts of the body.

There is a lot of pressure from the contraction of the ventricles. and it is this pressure, pushes the blood through the arteries miles within the body.

It is the pressure, the force of blood pushing against the inside walls of your arteries that will be discussed when we talk of blood "pressure".

What do the numbers mean?

You've probably heard the sound of a beating heart at a time. It sounds like kind: lub-dub, lub-dub, lub-dub, lub-DUB.

The "lub" is the sound of the ear to beat pumped blood into the graeren, more powerful chambers, the ventricles. The "dub" is the sound of the ventricles to beat and pump blood away from the powerful heart.

When ventricles contract (the "Dub"), this is the moment of pressure graten called "systolic pressure."

Between a "lub-dub" and the next "lub-dub" is a moment where the heart is not to suggest to all, this is the moment of the lowest pressure of the term "diastolic pressure."

When doctors or nurses measure your blood pressure , They usually give it to you as two numbers, the "systolic" about the "diastolic" or high above the low measurements.

These figures in certain ranges.

What controls blood pressure?

Blood pressure is by tiny muscles that line the inside of your blood vessels.
�
These muscles allow your arteries to use as soft rubber tubes, which expand with each beat heart.

When your muscles throughout the circulatory system [of the arteries and veins, the blood] extend these blood pressure drops.

When Muscles throughout the circulatory system tense, blood pressure rises.

When these muscles get tense, the arteries are close, stiffer, less flexible, and the heart has to beat harder to keep the blood flowing through those narrower tubes.

If the muscles that Their main arteries are tense all the time, the blood pressure is still high. This is called hypertension!

Continuous high blood pressure provides additional exposure, wear in your heart and arteries that can ultimately lead to heart attacks and strokes.

What causes high blood pressure?

What is it that the muscles that line your Blutgefae tense all the time? What are the things that can really drive your blood pressure?

* Poor nutrition
� Nutritional deficiencies

* obesity

* emotional and physical stress

* Being diabetic

Each of the above can lead to the loss of vital minerals from the body. These minerals are essential for the natural and effective control of blood pressure.

"Magnesium is important for cells to maintain balances ordnungsgemae other minerals such as potassium, sodium and calcium."

"If cells are deficient in magnesium, this balance is disturbed, and cells lose and potassium are flooded with calcium and sodium."

"In the smooth muscle cells of the Blutgefae, it sets the stage for constriction and increasing blood pressure. "

Not enough magnesium is one of the main causes of high blood pressure pressure.

"As many as half of us in the United States are magnesium deficient."

"Our soils are depleted of magnesium, which eliminates the natural opportunity to receive magnesium from fruits, vegetables and water." - Excerpts from the Sinatra solution by Stephen T. Sinatra, MD
