Stroke is a condition in which brain cells damaged by not getting enough oxygen and nutrients.

Brain cells must always get oxygen and nutrients that sufficient in order to perform its functions properly. Intake of oxygen and nutrients will be carried by the blood flowing in the blood vessels leading to brain cells. When blood flow or the flow of oxygen and nutrients were blocked for several minutes, then it can be a stroke.

When the quota of oxygen blocked or interrupted 8-10 seconds will occur impaired brain function. When more than 6-8 minutes will occur in some brain damage that is not recovered. The longer the inhibition that occurs, the effect will be more severe and more difficult to regenerate.
