What is L-arginine, and what is it`s role in regulating blood pressure?

It has been labelled a non-essential amino acid basically because our own body manufactures it in measure. We also need to boost it from the foods we eat and through physical activity, but the worse our diets and the more sedentary our lifestyles become, this amino acid in reality takes on the “essential” so to speak.

Arginine is needed to bio-synthesize super nitric oxide which is transported by hemoglobin around the body for vital organs that need it and our cardiovascular system is included. It reacts on the lining of blood vessels (endothelium) to stimulate the smooth muscle to relax reducing high blood pressure, so if we are lacking in some way we are more likely to develop hypertension.

So you might conclude that the solution is easy then. Just supplement with l-arginine! This has been successful for many people. Dr. Ignarro, Nobel prize winner who discovered the importance of nitric oxide in its role to open blood vessels helps us understand that not only will supplementing this amino acid reduce blood pressure in some but …

What are the needed vitamins for high blood pressure?

Two that have a major effect on the cardiovascular system are:

Vitamin C will help strengthen the arteries by promoting collagen production. It is also known to be one of the strongest and abundant anti-oxidants found in healthy diets.

Vitamin E is for the heart. Once you have found what is causing your arteries to be blocked or constricted and start rectifying the condition so blood can flow easily then an increase in vitamin E will strengthen your heart to be more powerful.

Why Natural and Organic is best

You could be thinking that buying a multi-vitamin is the wisest choice you can make. Should you choose a wide range of vitamins combined in one convenient pill or several different vitamin pills? Whatever your choice, is it not because you believe this will ensure your body gets the vitamins you may be lacking in?

Well, there`s a fair chance you would be throwing your money down the toilet! Yes, and I mean too. Let me explain.

Vitamins are co-enzymes. In other words, they work in partnership with …

Yes it`s true! Music Therapy has proven to reduce high blood pressure.

In general it is recommended for mild hypertension but when you take into consideration the effect it has on mood and breathing, it must benefit even in a contributory way, those who suffer also from moderate and severe hypertension.

Consider people who are under stress. If their stress is the cause of their high blood pressure, a regular session with the right music may help them relax, reducing the stress and so lower the blood pressure.

Music therapy is also used for other health problems that cause secondary hypertension, such as alcoholism, pain, and muscle tension therefore it stands to reason that it has a large part to play in natural healing methods for high blood pressure.

Can any music be used in Music Therapy to produce beneficial effects on high blood pressure?

Do you suffer from diabetes and high blood pressure? About 75% of people with diabetes have type 2 and go on to develop high blood pressure, but are often left in the dark about what is actually happening inside their bodies. There are many treatment options for high blood pressure you can try out.

As I have often repeated through the pages of this website, doctors are under pressure today. With more patients on their lists and less time for each one, it`s obvious why they don`t offer any explanations.

So the responsibility lies with us to educate ourselves. But what a difference it makes when we do. Understanding how our bodies work can open our eyes to where the real, underlying problem lies, impress on our minds the seriousness of our condition, the importance of making changes, and empowering us to make them.

We asked the question in Part 1 of this subject, calcium deficiency and its symptoms, “Does supplementing calcium in people aged 50+ with osteoporosis cause an increased heart attack by 30% as researchers discovered?” Or could there be another hidden cause?

Understanding Calcium Deficiency – Use some common sense!

To begin with, this subject calls for some good old fashioned common sense! How much milk do you drink in a day? How much Cheese or yogurt do you eat in a week? How much broccoli, baked beans, chick peas, salmon, sardines, pasta, rice, bread, cheesecakes, and ice cream do you eat in a month???

The list goes on and on, and I`m presuming you eat some of these as staple foods, frequently. They all have a high calcium content, so do we need to supplement? Are the supplements better absorbed than these foods? Hardly!

Research has enlightened us that osteoporosis, bone fractures, high blood pressure, and heart disease have increased rather than decreased even although we have followed these international health guidelines to combat calcium deficiency. So something is amiss. It`s high time we took a look at some facts …

Do you take Ibuprofen often for pain relief? Have you read what the side effects of Ibuprofen are? Would it surprise you to know that long term use can cause high blood pressure, blood clots, fluid retention (edema), heart attacks, heart failure, over-working of the liver, and kidney damage?

Quite alarming, I should say! I think you will agree with me that most drugs carry a side effects tag, but when it comes to pain killers, we need to be extra careful. Most people associate them with feeling well and so they pass as being safe. I particularly try not to take pain killers, but there are times when you cross the pain barrier and just have to take one, or two.

For any of you who suffer chronic pain daily, such as shoulder, back or joint pain, ibuprofen may be your choice of pain killer because of it`s power to dull serious pain quickly, but it`s a drug to be used with extra caution.

The side effects of ibuprofen that I particularly want you to be concerned about, are high blood pressure caused by poor liver function, fluid retention, …

Did you know that the Brits have the best asparagus in the world? I have a “wisp” of it in my garden which only serves as an ornament. It is the asparagus racemosus species I think because it’s blooming now in this month of August.

It can be quite pricey, but that’s understandable as it has to be hand picked.
