Cyclical Blood Pressure Patterns Could Offer Critical Health Clues
定期测量血压能有效保持身体健康
Sixty years ago, when medical researcher Franz Halberg first proposed the unorthodox idea that our bodies respond to the natural cycles of day and night, not the hours on a clock, his fellow scientists scoffed. Today, circadian rhythms, as Dr. Halberg called these natural cycles, are accepted as a fundamental biological process, and their discovery made the Romanian-born physician famous. Now, he is challenging medical orthodoxy again by suggesting that cyclical patterns in our blood pressure offer clues about risks to our health.

60年前,当药物研究者弗朗茨·赫博首次提出非正统理念“人的身体会响应自然的昼夜变化”,而不是根据时间来变化,他的观点在当时受到了同行的嘲笑 。现在,赫博博士所说的自然时钟被公认为基本的生物时钟,而这位出生于罗马尼亚的医生也一举成名 。现在,他又一次挑战医学观念 。他表示血液循环类型对人类身体有健康威胁 。来自明尼阿波里斯市(美国城市)的报道,VOA记者雪莱报道 。
