Improve your blood circulation

Your blood vessels age with you  

Blood vessels in our body transport oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. As we grow older, fats, cholesterol, calcium and free radicals build up within our blood vessels.

Over time, this can affect the blood flow to different parts of the body.

When blood flow to a specific part of your body is reduced, you may experience the symptoms of poor circulation.


What are the possible signs and symptoms of poor blood circulation?

A wide range of symptoms can indicate poor blood circulation. These symptoms can affect a person’s quality of life and may even cause severe complications.

They include:

  • numbness and tingling in the hands and feet
  • cold hands and feet
  • swelling in the feet, ankles, and legs
  • memory loss and difficulty concentrating
  • vertigo (dizziness)
  • fatigue (tiredness)
