Bad Circulation? Try Some Natural Remedies…

Poor circulation, especially vascular disease; is a condition where the arteries are narrowed and the blood supply to the legs is constrained. Some of us may feel mild symptoms of this regularly- simply poor circulation and cold feet. However, as the condition develops it can give rise to more serious symptoms, like ulcers and leg pain whilst walking. There are surgical treatments for this disease, but natural treatments like vitamin C and natural enzymes also exist.

The worst outcome of peripheral vascular disease, as it is known, is gangrene which means amputation of toes, feet or even the entire leg. This is a grim prospect, but it will happen to very few of us with modern medical treatment. There are also a number of ways we can naturally improve circulation in order to avoid these symptoms.

Natural treatments and enzymes for circulation

The medical journal of Circulation has this month published results of a study that found that poor circulation is associated with low levels of vitamin C in the body. In this case, it seems that a solid intake of vitamin C may help prevent or slow down the symptoms of PVD.

Vitamin C is just one of the natural treatments which may be useful in battling PVD. We all know that arteries supply blood to the organs, and that they can become blocked with a fatty substance, which can lead to angina, heart attacks and even strokes. When this substance affects leg arteries, poor circulation or PVD is the result. Apart from surgery to remove the fat and widen arteries, all studies point to regular exercise as a number one treatment for poor circulation caused by blocked arteries.

The theory behind vitamin C treatment for circulation is that due to its antioxidant effect, vitamin C actually prevents cholesterol from sticking to the artery wall. In addition, vitamin E has been proved to thin the blood so that it passes through the affected vessels with much more ease.

Another treatment is through natural enzymes. Atone Repair natural enzyme supplement is combined with rutin, an enzyme and antioxidant, which has been theorized to help promote healthy circulation by reducing the levels of fibrin in the bloodstream.
