Circulatory System

Anemia, high blood pressure and high blood are all problems of the circulatory system.

  • Anemia happens when your blood doesn't have enough hemoglobin
  • High blood pressure is a cardiovascular disease which means the blood vessels become tight and constricted, forcing your heart to pump harder to move blood through your body
  • High blood cholesterol means that there is too much cholesterol (a fat-like substance) in your blood
