Most muscle mass increases blood pressure? Hypertension, or high blood pressure - the main risk factor serdechnososudistyh diseases and the first risk factor paralysis. Hypertension is often linked to over weight, obesity and, therefore, also considered a serious risk factor. And what about muscle? Some competing bodibildery go on stage in the weight almost 150 kg, while their growth rarely reaches 180 cm Of course, they have to be a problem with pressure.
However, according to recent studies, it is not. In one experiment, scientists monitored the effects of stress on high blood pressure from 127 young men with dark skin and bright. U subjects has been measured dry weight, fat mass and overall percentage of fat in the body. Stress procedure consisted of two hours of rest, then the tense hours of video games and two hours of recovery. Samples of blood and uriny taken every hour, and blood pressure measured at intervals of 15 minutes. The main result of the experiment was that more muscle to ensure better regulation of blood pressure under stress. For high percentage of fat picture was quite different - it was more than fat in the body, the worse it regulate the pressure in response to stress impact. All this was related to sodium.
The results of this study are also relevant to Bodybuilding. Possession of a large muscle mass improves the body's ability to remove sodium and reduces the likelihood of delays in body fluids. The process can be accelerated if taking nutrients that promote the withdrawal of sodium, for example, potassium and magnesium. Magnesium acts as a natural inhibitor converts angiotensin-enzyme, preventing a persistent increase in blood pressure.
