PLOS ONE, the largest scholarly journal in the world, has published 2 research articles: Seasonal Variations of Complete Blood Count and Inflammatory Biomarkers and Acute and Prolonged Adverse Effects of Temperature on Mortality from Cardiovascular Diseases.
Scientific research over time has shown an uptick in cardiac events during the winter. Heart attack cases are 31% more frequent in comparison with the summertime and the risk of stroke is 80% higher especially when the temperature goes below 15°C.
That’s because low temperatures cause your blood vessels to narrow, which increases blood pressure to keep your body warm. According to cardiologists, this is the exact reason the blood pressure is often higher in colder seasons that results in a higher risk of heart attacks or strokes.
Medicines used to treat high blood pressure (antihypertensive drugs) can have various adverse effects. Side effects of these drugs may be dizziness, loss of libido, elevated blood sugar levels, fatigue, muscle cramps, dry cough, and etc. Moreover, some medicines and their combinations may impair kidney function and cause kidney damage and even cause cancer development.
Among the most effective ways to manage blood pressure levels during the harsh winter months can be using some extra help, and Synthesit is worth paying attention to. Its benefits include:
- Helps lower cholesterol levels and maintain a balanced lipid profile.
- Normalized erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and improved blood viscosity.
- Helps increase hemoglobin level, which contributes to better oxygen delivery to the brain, heart and other vital organs.
- Improved properties of RBC membrane surface, which allows erythrocytes pass through narrow capillaries easily and reduces the risk of them sticking together.
Helps reduce alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels by more than 30% that shows good functional activity of the liver, which neutralizes toxins, purifying blood and body cells, including neurons, cardiac muscle fibers and vascular wall cells.
Sufficient oxygen supply stabilizes the brain, heart, kidneys, liver, vascular walls and endocrine gland function. All this, together with the mentioned above benefits of Synthesit, contributes to the normalization of blood pressure and heart rate.
