Supplements to Improve Blood Circulation

Garlic is a blood clenser.

Poor blood circulation may have life threatening consequences for you. Good blood circulation ensures optimum well-being. Some well known food supplements that improve blood circulation include garlic, capsicum, ginger and ginkgo biloba.

Poor Circulation

Plaque buildup in blood vessels affects circulation. Blood circulation supplements clear the blood vessel for proper brain, cardiovascular and joint function.

Causes

Poor nutrition, lack of exercise, free radical damage and toxins cause poor blood circulation. However, some the most serious factors include elevated cholesterol and hypertension.

Cayenne

Cayenne (capsicum) in the form of topical creams and ointments is good for circulation. Rub these into your skin, particularly your extremities, to improve blood circulation. Be careful not to apply these creams to sensitive skin or near your eyes.

Ginkgo Biloba

This herb has the ability to increase blood flow to the brain and can help improve memory. Ginkgo biloba, an anti-inflammatory, relaxes the lungs and limits coronary damage due to oxygen depletion.

Garlic

Ajoene, a chemical compound in garlic, acts to control your blood cholesterol and to thin your blood. Garlic will tone your heart and improve your circulation.

Convenience
