Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are abnormally enlarged, bulging, bluish, and lumpy-looking veins, often associated with dull, nagging aches and pains. It is estimated that about 50 percent of all middle aged Americans have at least some varicosities. More women are affected than men.

Because poor circulation contributes to the formulation of varicose veins, they are more common in people who sit or stand on one position for prolonged periods, people who habitually sit with their legs crossed, and those who do not get proper, regular exercise. Excess weight, heavy lifting, and pregnancy put increased pressure on the legs, increasing the likelihood of developing varicose veins. Also, a deficiency of vitamin C and bioflavonoids (mainly rutin) can weaken the collagen structure in the vein walls, which can lead to varicose veins.

Avoid animal protein, processed and refined foods, sugar, ice cream, fried foods, cheeses, peanuts, junk foods, tobacco, alcohol, and salt. Maintain a healthy weight and get regular moderate exercise. If you sit at a desk all day at work, make sure take breaks to get up and walk a few minutes. Supplement your diet with one or more of the following nutrients: copper.
