When we talk about circulation, we think of large blood vessels.. However, it is at the level of microcirculation that the true exchange between blood and cells takes place.. Microcirculation is responsible for distributing oxygen and nutrients to tissues..

When this system loses efficiency, the whole body suffers.. Over time and in the presence of chronic stress, tissue perfusion can shrink, affecting cellular function and tissue recovery capacity. Inefficient microcirculation is not only a consequence of ageing, but one of its determinants..

For this reason, longevity-oriented strategies place increasing emphasis on maintaining microcirculatory efficiency.. Quality of life also depends on what happens in the smallest and least visible systems of our body.

In this context, clinical models such as REAC Inside Blue Zone™ apply this knowledge through protocols dedicated to supporting microcirculatory efficiency and tissue function.
