The research team also manufactured a new type of sensor and incorporated it in a phone case.
Having a healthy diet doesn’t offset high salt consumption
A right doesn’t necessarily mend a wrong.
Meditation improves cardiovascular health almost as much as exercise
A new study, performed at Howard University Medical Center found that practicing the transcendental meditation technique seems to stimulate the production of telomerase, an enzyme associated with reduced blood pressure and heart disease. This correlates well with earlier research which found that meditation techniques reduce rates of high blood pressure, heart attack, and stroke, as well as slowing of biological aging.
Eating food rich in protein can boost cardiovascular health as much as exercise or quitting smoking
The results of a new UEA study reveal that people who eat high levels of certain amino acids found in meat and plant-based protein have lower blood pressure and show less arterial stiffness, directly translating to higher levels of cardiovascular health. The magnitude of the association is similar to those previously reported for lifestyle risk factors including salt intake, physical activity, alcohol consumption and smoking.
