Learn More About Hypertension

Over half of all diseases are self-inflicted. Major diseases originate from eating too much of the wrong food and damage is done to many organs simultaneously. We suggest that a prudent person suffering early vascular dysfunction symptoms would be wise to pursue vigorous, thorough diet revision at the earliest opportunity.

Brain Circulation

The brain is a unique organ in the body. The blood circulation in the brain is more complex, more regulated, and less understood than the circulation in any other tissue.

Vascular Diseases" of blood vessels are a major cause of premature disability and death. Heart attacks and strokes are the most obvious consequence of damaged arteries and increased clotting of blood. Thrombosis occurs in arteries narrowed by fatty lesions in the arterial walls, a process known as atherosclerosis. When the coronary or cerebral arteries are diseased, it is a matter of time before symptoms of reduced blood flow are felt or an "attack" occurs.

When the arteries to the brain are obstructed, a cerebral infarct occurs with loss of movement, ensory or cognitive abilities. Neither the heart nor the brain can repair the damage done so that the injury leaves behind a permanent disability.

Join us for a well-focused look at preventing brain injury with diet revision and exercise.
