Diet And Hypertension
High blood pressure is now one of the most widespread diseases in industrialized countries, often many people are unaware of their medical condition if not before the appearance of a sensational event, that’s why the attention of information structures is facing the appropriate authorities information campaigns.
Hypertension is a disease characterized by a significant increase in blood pressure values than the norm. An individual is defined hypertensive when their systolic blood pressure or maximum is greater than 140 mmHg and diastolic or minimum is greater than 95 mmHg, these values, however, vary continuously, so before confirming a diagnosis of hypertension pressure must be measured several times.

Cardiovascular Adaptation To Exercise

Heart rate
Among the cardiovascular changes observed a decrease in heart rate (heart beats per minute) at rest and during performance of a submaximal exercise intensity, no perceptible changes in heart rate usually peak with training. That is, the same mechanical stress (eg running at 12 km / h) before training could make an effort for the agency regarding heart rate of 140 beats / min. and after 4 weeks of aerobic training lead 130 bpm. Undoubtedly it is a positive development and improved cardiovascular fitness. The heart rate therefore is a parameter easy to measure, which quantifies in a practical and real intensity cardiovascular exertion level. Their knowledge allows us to objectify the intensity of exercise and prescribe training loads based on this parameter. Also we carry out a transfer of the effort in Ergometries (stress tests performed in the exercise physiology laboratories) to the sporting arena. For this reason, more and more often, athletes in their training and competitions, mainly endurance athletes, who use heart rate monitors, telemetry, allow them to know at any time heart rate.
