The life of any living thing including humans depends on the blood vessels that carry the cells to supply all parts of the body to keep all living things alive. Anytime the supply of blood is impeded that makes blood not to reach any part of the body, that part starts to die.
That is why it is very important for us to make sure that we open up such blockades in our body systems. Every sickness develops from inside our bodies so it is very important to clear such blocked veins in our body to allow free flow of blood which also carry the oxygen supply to keep all the vital organs of the body alive.
SOMETHINGS THAT CAUSE THE BLOCKAGE OF OIR VEINS:
ATHEROSCLEROSIS:
This is a situation in which plaque builds up in the walls of your arteries, making them to be narrow and making it harder for blood to flow through to the vital organs of our bodies to remain alive. You can now understand why we should not allow such build up of plaques in our arteries.
- ANOTHER THING IS HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE:
High blood pressure can damage the walls of your arteries and lead to the formation of plaque. Uncountable persons in the world are suffering from high blood pressure due to the fact that the kind of things we take into the bodies are unhealthy which threatens our well-being.
DIABETES IS ANOTHER SERIOUS CAUSE:
Diabetes can also cause damage to the blood vessels, which could lead to a buildup of plaque and can increased then risk of blocked arteries. There is need to always fight against diabetes to remain free from getting our arteries blocked.
HIGH CHOLESTEROL DEPOSITS:
WHAT IS CHOLESTEROL?
Every day we hear of the word cholesterol, but many do not know what it is all about. Today we shall get some understanding of what it means in order to guide us on how to control its accumulation ie:
Cholesterol is a waxy, fat-like substance that's found in all the cells in our bodies. Essentially our bodies need some cholesterol to make hormones, like vitamin D, and substances that help us digest foods. Our bodies make all the cholesterol needed. Cholesterol is also found in foods from animal sources, such as meat, egg yolks and also cheese.
Too much cholesterol in your blood can combine with other substances in the blood to form plaque. And such Plaque can stick to the walls of your arteries. It is this buildup of plaque that is called atherosclerosis. It can lead to coronary artery disease, where your coronary arteries become narrow or even blocked.
SMOKING IS ANOTHER CAUSE THAT DAMAGE THE ARTERIES
Smoking damages the lining of your arteries and increases the risk of plaque formation. That is smoking is very dangerous and should be avoided as much as possible in our lives in order to prolong our life span.
OBESITY IS ANOTHER DANGEROUS THING
If you allow yourself to have overweight or obese in other words, it can increase the risk of blocked arteries due to the extra strain on the circulatory system. Obesity could be as a result of eating too much foods especially eating too much of red meat, cheese, egg yolks etc. As much as possible, avoid these items in your meals or est limited quantities.
LACK OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES :
N0When you don’t get enough exercise daily or weekly can increase the risk of blocked arteries due to the lack of blood flow to the muscles. That is why you should always engage in one form of physical activities or others.
STRESS ALSO IS ANOTHER REASON:
Chronic stress can contribute to the development of blocked arteries by increasing the production of hormones that can damage the blood vessels. It is advisable for all to avoid stress, take life easy to maintain food health.
