  • Blood Circulation & Hydration

    Circulatory systemAs discussed in more detail on the valve system page, the valve system is responsible for circulation of blood and fluid throughout the body. In certain stages of fight or flight, the valve system stops pumping, which can lead to poor circulation and decreased hydration of muscles and tissues. In the parasympathetic nervous system state (rest and digest, calm), the valve system is able to pump again, and this will improve circulation and hydration.
