Books about Potassium from Amazon.com

 

• Proves that the majority of cases of stroke, heart attack, and hypertension can easily be prevented by maintaining the proper ratio of potassium to sodium in the diet.

• Updated with scientific evidence from a recent Finnish study showing a 60 percent decline in deaths attributed to strokes and heart attacks.

• Provides a comprehensive program for balancing body chemistry at the cellular level.

High blood pressure is entirely preventable, without reliance on synthetic drugs. Dr. Moore's approach is simple: by maintaining the proper ratio of potassium to sodium in the diet, blood pressure can be regulated at the cellular level, preventing the development of hypertension and the high incidence of strokes and heart attacks associated with it. Dr. Moore updates this edition with a new preface reporting on the latest scientific research in support of his program. The most striking results come from Finland, where for several decades sodium chloride has been replaced nationwide with a commercial sodium/potassium mixture, resulting in a 60 percent decline nationwide in deaths attributed to strokes and heart attacks. Extrapolated to America, the Finnish statistics would mean 360,000 strokes prevented and 96,000 lives saved every year.

Dr. Moore makes it clear that high blood pressure is only one symptom of an entire systemic imbalance. He outlines a safe, effective program that focuses on nutrition, weight loss, and exercise to bring the entire body chemistry into balance. For those currently taking blood pressure medications, he includes a chapter on working with your physician to ensure that any reduction in hypertension drugs can be effected gradually and safely.

One of America's foremost researchers in biophysics outlines a new approach to preventing and managing high blood pressure without depending on drugs or suffering their side effects. Dr. Richard Moore explains the basic nutrient ratio regulating blood pressure at the cellular level, that is the key to keeping high blood pressure under control-and even reversing the condition.

By using the easy-to-follow program detailed in this book, millions of people will be able to eliminate or reduce traditional treatments.

For those already taking medication, the book also includes information on how to work with a physician to safely reduce dependence on hypertension drugs.

Due to the importance of potassium channels in cellular function, researchers have been challenged to develop tools and experimental procedures to probe the function and identify chemicals that modulate the behaviour of this super-family of ion channels. In Potassium Channels: Methods and Protocols, experts in the field present a range of experimental approaches that have been developed to investigate potassium channel structure, function, pharmacology, cell biology, gene expression, and their role in disease. Many of these techniques study potassium channels as cellular proteins as well as the resultant membrane biophysics. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biologyâ„¢ series format, the chapters contain brief introductions to the subject, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and a Notes section, which highlights tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Thorough and cutting-edge, Potassium Channels: Methods and Protocols provides a wide range of approaches in order to aid current research projects and inspire new investigations.

La presión alta, la "asesina silenciosa" y la amenaza número uno para la salud en Estados Unidos, puede evitarse Esta conclusión se basa en el informe más actualizado del Programa Nacional Educativo para la Presión Alta, de Estados Unidos, y confirma el tratamiento indicado en el libro del doctor Moore. Si se lleva una dieta con la proporción adecuada de potasio y calcio (el llamado factor K), se regula la presión en el nivel celular, evitando la hipertensión. El autor explica exactamente cómo lograrlo con un programa de nutrición seguro, controlando el peso y haciendo ejercicio. Si usted ya padece de hipertensión, este programa puede disminuir notablemente sus efectos o incluso erradicarlos sin los tratamientos tradicionales de fármacos y dieta blanda. Este libro contiene también un capítulo en el cual se explica cómo colaborar con el médico para que la reducción de los medicamentos contra la hipertensión se lleve a cabo de manera gradual y segura..
