Stop Aging of Blood Vessel: What is Essential Nutrition?

​Healthy blood vessels are flexible enough to endure blood pressure, but unhealthy blood vessels which have hardening of blood vessels are not flexible enough to endure blood pressure, resulting in rupture of blood vessels. This is aging of the blood vessel. Instant elevation of blood pressure causes the rupture of the blood vessel, causing brain bleeding, rupture of artery that lead to life threatening condition.
 
According to a recent study, it has turned out that a nutrition helps keep your blood vessel young.
 
The nutrition removes active oxygen which progresses hardening of blood vessels. It has turned out that insufficiency of the nutrition causes the elevation of blood pressure and the progression of hardening of blood vessels by the research using rats.
 
Even if you take sufficient other nutrition which has been said that is good for blood vessels such as EPA, DHA, alpha-linolenic acid, you can’t avoid the aging of blood vessels if the nutrition is not sufficient.
 
What is the most important nutrition to keep your blood vessels young?
 
The essential nutrition to keep our blood vessels young is Zinc.

Elderly people tend to be a lack of zinc because the amount of meat they eat decreases and their digestion declines.
 
How to check a lack of zinc
 
Lack of zinc causes abnormality of taste. People with lack of zinc like foods tasting strong better than foods tasting bland. That is why they take more salt before they notice, leading to high blood pressure.
 
Add 3 ear-picks of salt (0.08 grams) to a glass of water (200 ml).
When you drink it, if you feel salty taste, you are not a lack of zinc.
If you don’t feel salty taste and feel it tastes like plain water, you can have abnormal taste due to a lack of zinc.
 
Even if you don’t feel the salty taste, if you take sufficient zinc, the cells to feel the taste increases and your taste will be restored.
