Why is exercise important to circulation?
One of the best ways to help support your circulatory system is to keep active. Prolonged sitting can lead to a build-up of fatty material in your blood vessels making it hard to circulate blood throughout the body. Research published in the journal Experimental Physiology found that just 10 minutes of sitting can impair leg microvascular function and reduce blood flow(2) – this makes regular use of your Revitive Circulation Booster and daily exercise vital to your leg health.
The Heart Foundation advises that you need to get active daily to reduce your risk of developing heart or circulatory diseases.
What should I eat for better blood circulation?
What you eat is also important and several foods can help to improve your blood circulation. What you put into your body has a key role in blood flow so what you eat can positively or negatively impact your blood circulation3.
