How camphor invigorates the brain - from low blood pressure to high performance
High blood pressure is feared as the "silent killer" because it can cause massive damage to the vessels over the long term. On the other hand, there is no health risk from essential hypotension, chronic low blood pressure. Those affected - and that is up to five percent of the population - often complain about physical complaints such as tiredness and a reduction in mental performance. LMU researchers led by Professor Rainer Schandry have now been able to prove for the first time on the basis of a scientific study that a tried and tested home remedy can help effectively in these cases: camphor.
