Could Hypertension Simply Be "Thick" Blood?Written by Rita Lambros-Segur, M.H.

Excess sodium can force its way into spaces between tissues constricting capillaries that are so small only one red blood cell may pass through them at a time. This phenomena shuts down blood and nutrient (including oxygen) supplies to various areas of body. Unchelated sodium also has ability to hold water in tissues causing edema. Salt is also very hard on small tubules in kidneys and has an affinity for cholesterol--another substance which plugs up arterial plumbing. Dr. John Christopher, N.D. would often recommend foods high in potassium to help in blood pressure regulation. Grape juice, potatoes, tomatoes, citrus fruits and green vegetables are only a few of such foods. In other words, by combining lifestyle modifications with whole-food supplements designed to bring body into homeostasis, you'll have a winning combination to balance body's electrical construction. Many monitor their hypertension with a sphygmomanometer and a stethescope. Today, that market produces easier monitoring devices. In any case, once you are in harmony with nature's cures and electrical construct of both universe and your body, you will not need external instruments to measure your health, which I'm sure you'll agree is a gift.

Over past 25 years, Japanese and Chinese researchers and clinicians have done extensive research on infrared treatments and reported many provocative findings. Whole-body infrared therapy has been used for over 80 years by German physicians in an independently developed form. Among other benefits, whole-body infrared thermal systems make it possible for people in wheelchairs, or those who are otherwise unable to exert themselves, or who won't follow through on an exercising and conditioning program to achieve a cardiovascular training effect. This also allows for more variety in any ongoing exercise program. As for infrared's outstanding effect on caloric consumption and weight control, we find that burning from 600 to 2,400 calories in a 30 minute session to be quite routine. The infrared thermal system might then simulate consumption of energy equal to that expended in a 6 to 9 mile run during only a single session. This would be invaluable for those who don't exercise and those who can't exercise yet want an effective weight control and fitness maintenance program. Evidently flushing of toxins from lymph areas and from largest organ of elimination, skin, are source of many these health improvements. Toxemia has been targeted as number one reason so many of us are ill. With elimination of these poisons from deep within body, organs can then do their job unhindered. Although any health-restoring strategy involves some type of cleansing diet and supplements, infrared therapy would definitely be called for to augment process more efficiently. The list of health enhancements through use of infrared therapy is impressive and it includes: relief from all forms of arthritis, increase in extensibility of collagen tissues, relieves muscle spasms and joint stiffness, increases blood flow, assists in resolution of inflammatory infiltrates, edema and exudates, weight control, hypertension, arteriosclerosis, coronary artery disease, blood circulation, ear, nose and throat conditions, skin conditions (including cellulite) and all-around beauty treatment. Is infrared therapy a cure-all? Well, I don't believe that. But its value cannot be ignored. Especially in view of fact that millions suffer from toxic overload and its vast array of symptoms. Perhaps many more will come to view it as body care system of future just like NASA's astronauts and newborn babies have.
