Prostaglandins – How it promotes better blood circulation
Prostaglandins are hormones technically but are rarely considered such. They belong to a group of lipid compounds are produced from fatty acids with important functions in the body.
The Prostaglandins are not stored by the body, but the cells can not produce them on demand when there are available raw materials. PG2 and PG3 prostaglandins have important roles as regards blood pressure.
PG2 is made from either one of two fatty acids. It can be acid linoleic or arachidonic acid. Linoleic acid is polyunsaturated fats from plants, whereas arachidonic acid is animal flesh. Aspirin indomethacin or hinders the production of prostaglandins which increase blood pressure due to increased total peripheral resistance.
PG2 from linoleic acid is responsible for dilation of peripheral arterioles and make possible the flow of blood in kidneys. In addition, it helps the kidneys in the elimination of sodium in the blood by releasing leukotrienes.
PG3 is composed of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), which is an omega-3 fatty acids. EPA best obtained from the blue skin of cold water fish such as salmon, mackerel and trout, but can also be found in the chloroplasts of green plants. It has no effect on kidney and peripheral resistance Unlike PG2.
However, it acts as a lubricant naturally in cells and blood cells in arteries and arterioles to facilitate the movement of cells of vessels and capillaries. So, people with plenty of EPA are assured of lower blood pressure. This may be one explanation why vegetarians generally have low blood pressure, in the absence of major medical studies.
Thus, to promote blood pressure normal, your diet should contain linoleic acid and the reasonable amount of EPA. Good nutrition should therefore have plenty of vegetables and some cold water fish. If fish are not taken regularly, capsules of fish oil are available with the EPA or oil supplements Flax, a good source of alpha linolenic oil (ALA) is an omega-3 oil. EPA and linseed oil are also good at reducing heart disease and breast cancer in women.
In addition, ALA is produced from linoleic acid by chloroplasts green plants. People and animals depend on plants for their production because it can be done by them. For this reason, taking oil supplements Flax is the only way to get the ALA.
Flaxseed oil is rich in ALA, about 52% is available in bottles in supermarkets, which can be added to various foods such as oatmeal and salad. Flaxseed oil should not be used for frying or cooking avoid loss of nutritional value.
Further research is still underway to find the derivatives necessary to reduce blood pressure people with prostaglandin damaged. Already, the consumption of foods such as vegetables and fish with the inclusion of garlic and onion is a natural remedy.
