The health of blood vessels is related to severe diseases determining life or death in a number of cases. Trouble in the blood vessels causes a myriad of diseases including the following: myocardial infarction with a death rate of about 30%; strokes from which one of six people suffer; and dementia, which is estimated to affect about 10% of senior citizens over 65 in 2020.
What blood vessels do is very simple. Blood vessels deliver oxygen and nutrients to every corner in the body and deliver and discharge waste generated from the metabolic process of cells.
When blood becomes sticky, a blood clot is formed. When blood vessels are blocked or burst out, the blood vessels canโt perform the functions. When blood vessels in the brain are blocked or burst out, cerebral infarction, stroke or dementia occur. When blood vessels of the heart are blocked or burst out, myocardial infraction, angina or arrhythmia occur.
Aerobic exercise softens the hard blood vessels and increases the blood flow by accelerating the excretion of nitric oxide expanding the blood vessels. It is effective to exercise for more than thirty minutes a day, four to five days a week.
It is recommended for the health of blood vessels not to have food fried in hardened oil or fast food. This is because of the high quantity of trans fat. Trans fat is accumulated in the blood vessels more than saturated fat. It is known that trans fat is more than twice as likely to make blood vessels narrow as saturated fat.
Electric field therapy with high voltage alternating current is a very simple and convenient treatment approach. It forms an electric field, puts a human body inside it and so makes a human body influenced by it. Potential therapy aims to keep healthy, improve healing ability and treat diseases using an electric field.
Everyone is familiar with electricity, particularly electricity for TV, audio appliances or washing machines and natural electricity such as lightening. While they are the same because they are electricity, the properties and expressions of each kind are different. While electricity is essential for our life, those who recognize electricity as a scary thing generally donโt know that electricity is also accumulated in our body.
Our body is controlled by electricity. Medical centers execute electric measurements to identify the status of each part in our body.These include electrocardiography, electroencephalogram tests to measure the bio-signal exchanged between brain cells, and electromyography, which estimates muscular strength by measuring the bio-signal delivered to the muscles.
When cervical spine is severely damaged, it can cause general paralysis. Severe damage of the spine may cause waist-down paralysis. Since bio-signal is not communicated, muscles canโt move. However, blood circulates and so the damaged parts are not rotten. When a cervical nerve to an arm is pressed or a nerve is weak because muscles are overused the arm feels painful or numb. Itโs because bio-electricity flows irregularly.
Such electric phenomenon in a body is generally called bioelectricity. Bioelectricity is so weak that a body canโt feel it. However, bioelectricity is essential for normal activity of a body and disappears when life is ended. Electricity existing in our body is evidence proving we are alive.
The negative electricity of the potential generator is the electricity essential for vital activity. We can live, feeling the spirit of the youth in our body, due to carrying the current produced by the potential therapy every day.
The electricity of the potential generator is like the spirit described in oriental medicine and like a natural healing power or immunity generally mentioned in a hospital. When a kind of high voltage potential energy is sufficiently supplied to our body, blood which is slightly acid is restored to alkalescent. Then, pH buffering (controlling pH of blood to a certain level) occurs.
This activity is called the ion effect. Itโs potential therapy (ion therapy) that makes the best use of the principle.
