People who are fond of marathon or steel barbells need lots of blood circulation to the muscles. Not only the speed of circulation but also the quality of blood are neccessory. But the heart can't increase the speed persistently because the waste products of heart( humidity ) would suddenly stop the movenment of heart.
The life whose nature is to prolong its living at its best will not allow the extreme movements of heart and then seek for another safe alternative. The alternative is to decrease the movements but to enrich the quality of blood. Though some of physiologist think the slow pulse would be better than normal but I don't think it would be good at all.
The slow movements of heart also produce the humidity more than normal and it will be a major cause of herat failure at last.
I have meet 3 marathon runners and all of them have around 40 pulse frequency per minute. I have treated them with herbs and increased the frequency to around 60 that is near average or normal.
The following case is for one of them.
1. Personal Information(041950) Ahn 0 0, Male, 60 aged Marathon runner Address : Seochogu, Seoul, Korea 2. Chief Complaint The pulse around 40 frequency per minute Feeling heavy in the chest. Getting absent minded. 3. Other Symptoms and Signs Cold sweat Oily face Residual urine Pulse : Very weak, sunk, very slow Tongue : Swollen tongue, white thick coated. Abdomen : Tight on subcostal area. Severe pain on low both back with drumming 4. Diagonsis Liver congestive Heart small Digestive organs large Lung weak Humidity all over the body 5. Pathology Constitutionally large digestive organs and small heart and weak lung makes humidity and physiologically extreme exercise makes humidity. So the humidity is all over the body, in the heart muscle, in the vessel and in fine organs.
6. Prescription To release the liver To improve the circulation To get rid of humidity and devastated blood.
7. Result 1st Prescription To get rid of humidity is major. 1st Result Feeling light. The pulse got a little faster than before. He came again after running full course of marathons twice. 2nd Prescription Same as 1st but added the herbs for releasing liver. 2nd Result I confirmed his pulse is nearly normal one month later when he came with smiling. And the pain on low back was decreased.
3rd Prescription The humidity was decreased with 1 and 2nd prescription. So the main purpose of 3rd is to comfort the heart.
3rd Result He came later with his family for medical cunsult. He has little white mosses on his tongue and his pulse is over 60 freqeuncy per minute. He does not pain in the chest any more. His absent minded wae gone. He promised to reduce his running from then on.
