We’re having another scorching summer here in Res-Q land, and when it’s way too hot, things get super uncomfortable outside. Not only that, but the heat can cause some serious health issues if people aren’t careful or properly prepared. The worst part is if someone is completely unaware of an issue due to an improper balance within their own physiological ecosystem. Poor circulation, high blood pressure, plus vitamin deficiencies can be concerning when you are out in the heat. So, please take note of some ways to optimize yourself before heading out for a long summer day.
Heat and humidity put significant stress on the heart. When you experience temperatures, particularly temps over 98 degrees, the release of heat in your body becomes much more difficult because the heat wants to travel to areas that are cooler. So, if the heat is higher than your body temperature, it will travel more to the skin, rather than release into the air around you. This reroutes blood flow, causing your heart to beat faster and pump harder.
Fun Fact: You can circulate two to four times as much blood on a hot day, rather than on a cool day.
Circulation is key! Achieving optimal circulation will help you to function much better in the heat than someone with poor circulation. That’s because the heart, which is going to be working harder, will have an optimal circulatory path, which will lighten the stress that your body will be put through. There are a few combos of Res-Q products that will help in this aspect.
Res-Q 1250 is the flagship omega-3 product that are considered essential for numerous areas of body function. This product contains a higher amount of EPA and DHA than other brands; these essential fatty acids help support a balanced inflammatory response throughout the body and promote cardiovascular function. This means better circulation, better cholesterol levels, and reduced inflammation.
Combining Res-Q 1250 with Res-Q LDL-XQ10 is a great solution to lower cholesterol, as the product contains natural properties that work to counteract the overproduction of LDL levels, resulting in rapid cholesterol-lowering benefits. This reinforces your body’s ability to sufficiently pump blood.
Listen to what Dr. Eric Lebby, the Chief of Orthopedics for Lehigh Valley Hospital, has to say about the combo:
“Res-Q LDL-XQ10 is a great natural way to lower cholesterol. It acts as a natural statin to lower LDL cholesterol. Studies show that patients that take Res-Q 1250 and Res-Q LDL-XQ10 lower their cholesterol more effectively then patients on traditional statins alone. I recommend Res-Q LDL-XQ10 to all of my patients with elevated cholesterol levels and increased risk for cardiovascular disease."
Since your heart is working so hard under the heat, it is important to address high blood pressure as well! The combination of Res-Q Magnesium and Res-Q Orosine is a perfectly natural choice to help with your heart rhythm and lower blood pressure.
When you have high blood pressure and the blood vessels are tight and constricted, the heart must pump harder to move blood through your arteries. As a result, your arterial walls become damaged, increasing your risk for a buildup of unwanted plaque. Res-Q Orosine has been found in studies to repair the inside of arteries and lower blood pressure.
Res-Q Magnesium contains 300 different enzyme reactions that depend on magnesium including the use of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) or the energy source of your cells, which helps your heart beat strong and your muscles fight fatigue. Additionally, magnesium is also good for blood sugar metabolism, which especially helps those with Diabetes and pre-Diabetes. It’s important for blood sugar levels to be normal in the heat and as you exercise because with low blood sugar, you may feel weak, fatigued, or even pass out!
Excessive sweating is also a problem because sweat can pull nutrients from the body, such as sodium, potassium, and other minerals that are important for muscle contractions, nerve transmissions, and water balance. This, again, puts more stress on your cardiovascular system. That’s why staying hydrated and as cool as possible is so important for your health when you’re out on a hot day.
Additionally, mixing your water with Res-Q RenewU is a great way to help slow the natural aging process, better your skin health, and increase the production of natural human growth hormone. All of these awesome Res-Q combos will help you feel assured that you’re helping your body get ready to head out into the heat.
