Top 4 circulation-boosting foods

1. Spinach
Rich in nitrates, spinach helps relax and widen blood vessels, improving blood flow and supporting healthy blood pressure⁵.

2. Beetroot
Like spinach, beetroot is high in nitrates, which convert to nitric oxide in the body, helping to prevent clot formation and lower blood pressure^6,7.

3. Turmeric
The active compound curcumin supports circulation by increasing nitric oxide production and reducing plaque buildup in arteries^8.

4. Dark chocolate
Rich in flavonoids, dark chocolate has been linked to improved blood flow and vascular function. The natural plant compounds help relax blood vessels, supporting healthy circulation. Just a small square of dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher) can be a heart-healthy treat⁹ - and a delicious way to give your circulation a gentle boost. As with all good things, moderation is key!

Other circulation-friendly foods include:

Garlic, pomegranates, berries, cayenne pepper, walnuts and red grapes.
