Banish Heavy Legs & Varicose Veins

A combination of herbs can banish heavy legs and varicose veins by redressing oedema, cramp and CVI (Chronic Venous Insufficiency) that is caused by reduced blood flow through the veins. Warmer weather aggravates these symptoms and from late Spring onwards, people prone to such conditions are troubled by discomfort and unsightly veins in their legs.

In addition people who spend most of their day on their feet – such as shop workers, hairdressers, teachers and aircrew – can also suffer these symptoms all year round.

Three herbs help to restore thread veins, renovate the valves in the veins, improve elasticity and flexibility of the veins and strengthen blood capillaries.

Butcher’s Broom
Boosts circulation and gives elasticity to the vein walls.

Horse Chestnut
Inhibits inflammation in the body’s cells, help maintain the collagen structure of the vein wall, improves blood flow and reduces swelling.

Vine Leaf
Has potent antioxidant properties to prevent ageing and inflammation of the cells, slows down oxidation within the veins – oxidation is understood to be a key contributory factor to CVI.

This combination of Butcher’s Broom, Horse Chestnut and Vine Leaf is available in handy capsules. Three per day are recommended to alleviate symptoms then one capsule per day for maintenance. It is widely available at health food shops in packs of 40 soft gel capsules for £10.05 and online from Revital.com.

Also Available As A Topical Cream

Butcher’s Broom and Horse Chestnut are combined with Witch Hazel, Aloe and Jojoba in V-Nal Cream. When applied to the legs it relaxes them and works directly on the veins to stimulate circulation and thus prevent varicose veins. The beauty of this non-greasy cream is it works straight away to give immediate relief. Its cosmetic effect helps disguise spider veins and smooth the appearance of the skin.

V-Nal Cream costs £8.05 for 75ml from health food shops, and online from Revital.com.
