The worst foods for blood circulation
Blood circulation issues may be sensed in several methods
Some symptoms include tiredness as a result of a poor circulatory function that might bring on other symptoms including fainting and dizziness
The inability to concentrate in the hands or feet headaches angina and high blood pressure may also be other
Indications there could be issues with the blood circulation system
You will find nutritionally dense foods that we are able to integrate into our diets to make sure our circulatory
System is functioning at its finest
As we get older we have to start monitoring the things we eat as some foods can aggravate
Existing health conditions or bring on new ones
Here is a list of 10 foods to avoid if you have a bad blood circulation
One
added sugars
Sometimes I feel like a broken record when I talk about the dangers of sugar but poor circulation
Is a perfect example of why you should avoid it like the plane?
Eating too much sugar causes the body to release high amounts of insulin which triggers inflammation
Worse, though if that sugar is a major player in the development of type 2 diabetes
Diabetes is a circulation killer because chronically high levels of glucose in the blood coat arteries and veins
Making them progressively more brittle and less able to function properly
This is why so many people with diabetes develop circulation related complications
The easiest way to cut down on sugar is by cutting high glycemic carbohydrates out of your diet
In addition be on the lookout for hidden sugar lurking in places you might not expect it to be
Salad dressings barbecue sauce and other processed foods are notorious this way
Too
Trans fats a few years ago the FDA adopted a rule banning trans fats and set this year
2018 as the deadline for getting this dangerous fat out of our food
But even with this regulation you're not entirely in the clear if you cook with oil
Trans fats can be created under high heat frying plus. There's always a chance that food processing can create them
What is the solution?
Eat only organic whole foods and saute instead of fry and never ever deep-fry
Foods that contain high fat as a first fruit. That should be avoided by PEM dorita blockage of blood vessels
Because these foods can increase fat levels in the blood and cause blockage of blood vessels which can worsen your blood circulation
They include beef lamb butter cheese and coconut oil

Lot of people associate salt with high blood pressure and circulation issues, but that's only true up to a point
Sodium half of the chemical structure of salt is essential for good heart health
However beyond a certain amount it can be risky because it causes you to retain water
The more water in your system the greater your blood volume and the higher your blood pressure
I've actually seen patients in hypertensive crisis because they ate too much em or too many pickles
Again avoid them if you can but don't avoid salt altogether either your body needs it
Overall the best rule of thumb for improving circulation is this if it's good for your heart. It's good for your arteries and veins to
Combine these food tips with a complete
anti-inflammatory diet like PA mm stress reduction regular exercise less exposure to toxins and a few well-chosen
Nutritional supplements, and you'll be well on your way to better health

1
cold hands and feet
One of the first problems that you'll notice is that your hands and feet are constantly cold
While in the winter you may expect it. You will feel cold during the summer months
This is because your oxygenated blood isn't reaching your hands and feet
it's very common first to see the fingers and toes turn white if
You push on the areas you may find that they take longer to get some coloring back
This is a sign that the blood flow isn't there?
It's the blood that helps to heat up the areas so the more you lose the colder your hands and feet will feel
this coldness will be difficult to get rid of
You could wear gloves, and you will still experience it
It's not that your body is cold, but that your blood isn't reaching the areas to help warm them up
Watch out for artificially warming your hands and feet up you may get rid of the symptoms temporarily
But you won't get rid of the actual problem
It's tempting to keep putting your hands in warm water, but you could actually do harm to your skin
The cold sensations can continue around your body

Mild cases of swelling in your feet can be due to sitting or standing in one position for long periods of time high salt intake
malnutrition obesity aging a said eteri lifestyle premenstrual syndrome and pregnancy
However if you suffer from edema or swelling in your feet for quite some time it may be because of poor blood circulation
Due to a lack of blood flow
The kidneys become unable to carry out the process of keeping fluid in the blood vessels where it belongs
This causes the fluid to leech out and settle into surrounding tissues which leads to swelling in
extreme cases poor circulation can also cause leg ulcers
When you notice any form of swelling in your feet raise your legs above your heart level
The swelling will subside once the circulation improves
Consult your doctor if you have persistent or extreme swelling
Three
persistent fatigue and tardis
Fatigue is a common side effect of physical exertion and many medications

For
tingling sensations or numbing of the extremities
Have you ever laid on your arm, and then felt the tingling sensation or numbness when you sit back up?
It feels like your arm and hand aren't connected to your body, right
Well, this is because you've stopped the blood flow into the hand
It's completely normal, and if you only get it when you've put pressure on your arms or somehow stop the blood flow
It's nothing to worry about
What you should look out for is when you get a numbness or tingling feeling without reason?
You may just sit normally and suddenly feel like you have pins and needles in your hands or feet
They can be elsewhere, but the extremities are the most usually affected first
It's a sign that the blood isn't flowing where it needs to be
Your body is telling you that these areas need better blood flow
Look to see if anything is constricting your body first. It could be the way you're sitting
This is especially common if you sit cross-legged or you put pressure on your elbows at a desk
If you still can't improve the sensations, then you need to look at other reasons for the poor blood flow

To improve blood circulation and boost your immunity include exercise in your daily routine
As little as 20 minutes of walking five days a week and improve blood flow throughout your body
Six

Varicose veins tend to appear on the lower legs and cause pain each genus restlessness
burning sensations and heaviness in the legs
The appearance of bulging veins is also a beauty concern for many people other common factors
