For reasons that aren't yet clear, the body system that regulates blood flow malfunctions. High blood pressure, or hypertension, is the most common major health condition in the world. It is one of the leading causes of heart attack, heart failure, stroke, kidney failure, and premature death. It also can damage parts of the circulatory system-including blood vessels in the heart, brain, eyes, and kidneys. Sometimes called the "silent killer," high blood pressure is a disease that can go undetected for years. The higher the blood pressure or the longer it goes undiagnosed, the worse the outlook.   Blood pressure is the force of blood against artery walls.

 The immune system The special work of our immune system is to keep our bodies healthy.The immune system comprises several types of white blood cells that circulate in the blood and lymph. Their jobs are to seek, recruit, attack, and destroy foreign invaders, such as bacteria and viruses. To keep our immune system up we have to have a clean, free flowing blood stream.Other less realized components of the immune system are the skin(which acts as a barricade), mucus (which traps and entangles microorganisms), and even the bacteria in the large intestine (which prevent the coloniza ion of ba bacteria in the gut). Immune system functions are completely dependent on dietary nutrients. In fact, malnutrition is the leading cause of immune-system deficiency worldwide. When immune system functions are inadequate there is a marked increase in the chance of getting an infection. Children in many poor, developing countries have protein and/or energy deficient diets that are causative of two di...
