Effects of curcumin intake and aerobic exercise training on arterial compliance in postmenopausal women

open access: yesArtery Research, 2012
Background: Reduction in arterial compliance with aging increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Lifestyle modification, particularly aerobic exercise and dietary modification, has a favorable effect on vascular aging. Curcumin, a major component of

Effects of acute cervical stretching on arterial wall elastic properties

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Purpose: Acute (immediate) or regular (mid- or long-term) stretching increases arterial compliance and reduces arterial stiffness. Stretching is widely known to induce arterial functional factor changes, but it is unclear whether stretching alters ...

Effect Of Mirthful Laughter On Vascular Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In contrast to the well-established scientific evidence linking negative emotional states (e.g., depression, anxiety, or anger) to increased risk for cardiovascular disease, much less is known about the association between positive emotional states (e.g.,
