That's a feature of our circulatory system.
-
If I want more blood to go to the brain
-
there's two ways to get more blood to the brain.
-
Well, there's more than two ways,
-
but two ways as long as the pressure--blood pressure stays the same.
-
One way is to dilate the vessels of the brain to
-
create less resistance there.
-
The other way is to constrict the vessels somewhere else
-
to create more resistance there.
-
Either one of those is going to get me more flow to the brain.
-
Because it's a closed system,
-
everything is interconnected
