Our circulatory system is responsible for carrying blood to the cells. But a sedentary lifestyle, bad habits, hormones or genetic inheritance can deteriorate it. Physical activity and a healthy diet invigorate the heart and the entire circulatory system, helping to reactivate our body's blood circulation. Horse Chestnut: Contains various active ingredients such as saponins and tannins. Due to its flavonoids, it has traditionally been used as a venous tonic or vasoprotector that reduces the viscosity of the blood, making it more liquid, reducing the sedimentation time, decongesting the blood vessels and increasing capillary resistance. Ruscus, Sweet Clover and Red Vine: The synergy of these three plants favours the contraction of the muscle cells of the blood vessels, facilitating the venous return of the blood accumulated in the legs towards the heart. These plants are rich in saponins and tannins with vasoconstrictor and anti-inflammatory action. They increase capillary resistance, producing vasoconstriction, decreasing permeability and reducing fluid retention, particularly in the tissues of the venous wall. Bioflavonoids Rutin and Herperidin: Rutin reduces oedema in patients with chronic venous insufficiency, and also helps to reduce capillary fragility and reduce fluid retention in the lower limbs. Hesperidin, on the other hand, improves chronic venous insufficiency and reduces swelling.
