Many people associate circulation problems with clogged arteries leading to heart attacks and strokes. While that is in most cases correct, there are numerous other ailments that do not seem to be connected, but in fact , is just as related to poor circulation as the well known heart conditions. Understanding the nature of poor circulation, what causes it and why it is so prevalent, can be very eye opening to things you might not have even considered.
First lets answer the question - why does our blood clot? Well If it didn’t, a minor cut could cause us to bleed to death. But thanks to our body’s ability to produce several compounds that supports coagulation or clotting, the wound will stop bleeding via a clot formed at the wound site.
Real problems occur however when there is an imbalance between our ability to clot and our ability to keep blood thin and flowing. Our bodies produce several compounds to assist clotting but only one to keep blood from clotting (Plasmin). Also as we age our ability to produce Plasmin decreases. And worse of all when clotting occurs within our circulatory system caused by toxins, bacteria and fungus. This by far is the worst possible situation.
We may find ourselves struggling with a number of malities that we don’t associate with poor blood flow such as:
o High Blood Pressure
o Leg Cramps
o Skin Problems
o Poor Sleep
o Headaches
o Dementia
o Diabetes
o Varicose Veins
o Brain Fog
o Digestive Problems
o Erectile Disfuntion
o Low Lobido
o Swelling
o Blood Sugar Imbalances and more...
And that’s of course in addition to the heart and brain problems that we commonly associate with poor circulation. So it’s easy to view the conditions listed above as a precursor to a more serious condition.
Even something as seemingly benign as cold hands and feet could indicate poor circulation. It’s interesting to note that the human body has about 75,000 miles of arteries, blood vessels, and capillaries, holding about six liters of blood.
Let’s understand that blood carries oxygen to organs and tissues and carries toxins out of the body, so it’s importance can’t be overstated. That is why proper blood flow is critical. Imagine for example, the eyes. Blood reaches the eyes via capillaries. Look in the mirror at the whites of your eyes and see how small a capillary actually is. When blood is thick and not flowing freely, how can a capillary be adequately supplied with fresh blood?
Proper blood flow is central to a healthy condition. Consider the digestive system. It is where nutrition is extracted from what we eat and is the distribution point via blood to the rest of the body. If we have inadequate blood flow in our digestive tract, how will nutrition make it to where it is needed? In addition if we have problems in our digestive system as a result of blood flow problems, we will most certainly see problems elsewhere in the body.
Our blood vessels have the capability to produce Fibrin, the chief clotting agent. We encounter problems when Fibrin is produced within our blood vessels caused by saturated fats, chemicals, bacteria, and fungus. The uncontrolled production of Fibrin anywhere and everywhere within the circulatory system can cause all manor of disease including Heart disease and stroke.
Pay particular attention to the disclaimers that accompany commercials for aspirin, and other so-called blood thinners. In fact, thinning your blood is just one aspect of the problem. What about all that Fibrin which has narrowed openings in your circulatory system and continue to accumulate? Could that be the cause of some ailments that you might be suffering right now, but have not connected the dots? Disolving Fibrin within arteries are just as important because that can have the effect pressing the reset button for your circulatory system.
From stiffness to high blood pressure - from digestive irregularities to great nightly sleep, improving and enhancing blood flow is something that can have a positive effect on the entire body.
There is only one truly effective solution for accomplishing both of those problems (blood thinning and removal of Fibrin) and that’s Natto. It’s been consumed by the Japanese for over 1000 years. Recent studies have shown the effectiveness of nattokinase, which is derived from Natto. Google It! Give your circulatory system a rejuvination and protect your heart and brain
