Pumping blood to the legs and around
the body requires a strong heart and an efficient circulatory system.
Choosing the right foods can maintain good leg vein circulation and keep
the heart healthy.
Junk food and saturated fats found in red meat, cheese, butter and milk
should not be over-indulged, as this can lead to clogged up arteries and
a sluggish system. Opt instead for monosaturated fats, such as olive oil
and polyunsaturated fats (also known as essential fatty acids) found
only in oily fish, nuts and beans and a range of cooking oils, including
safflower, sunflower and walnut.
Eating a balanced diet with plenty of fibre, fresh fruit and vegetables
can help your circulatory system stay in good shape. This is because
many of these natural foods contain flavonoids, which are known to help
blood vessels and the vein circulation stay healthy.
