There are a lot of components to a HEART. There are the valves, the rhythms, the blood, the love! What most of us wouldn't think about is why all these things are essential for a heart to work - a few things are essential for it to keep working. Oxygen for one. Exercise for two. I know, I know...exercise every day..blah, blah, blah... who does that? who has time? WHY?
Here's why: Each time you exercise the heart will grow little branches of heart [eeeew, right?]...that hold oxygen. If you shallow breathe at night, our oxygen levels decrease - making the heart work harder and harder [creating high blood pressure]. If the heart suffers enough - it will have an attack. If you have exercised and grew little branches of heart, the heart doesn't have to work as hard in times of need. So park your car further away in the parking lot and hoof it to the grocery store door. It's only 30 seconds longer...and a heart surgery is HOURS.

Since we are entering the HEART HOLIDAY...
What does high blood pressure have to do with sleep?
Actually, EVERYTHING. The heart is stressed by the
lack of oxygen we breathe in during sleep...so it
has to beat harder and faster...thus, creating high blood
pressure. See more information in my book: "I Feel Like Crap
Syndrome..." Sold everywhere books are sold: currently SOLD
OUT at Barnes and Noble until Saturday.
