Blood circulation can be seen as a network in the body – like an internet connection for example…
Fast internet connectivity is almost a standard these days, but do you remember
what it was like to struggle to get online, to do your work, and to log in to your bank?
It was slow, frustrating and unproductive…
Well, that´s what it´s like having poor blood circulation…
Your body´s cells don´t get the oxygen and nutrients they need to function well…
Waste products don´t get excreted fast enough which causes toxins to linger in the body and cause oxidative stress, chronic inflammation and heart problems…
Find out below how adding certain foods to your diet can help improve your blood circulation – so you can function better, think faster and move better…
How to tell if you could be affected by Adrenal Fatigue
• You feel tired or weak…
• You need coffee to get going in the mornings…
• Your daily tasks feel like hard work…
• You feel like you’re not coping (it’s all too much)…
• You struggle to concentrate and don’t finish tasks…
• You feel irritable, anxious or depressed…
• Get headaches…
• Reduced interest in sex…
Feeling run down and drained all the time doesn’t have to be your normal state-of-being.
Unfortunately, it is for millions of people – all over the world – who just can’t seem to keep up anymore.
And there’s a very good explanation for this…
Researchers at numerous institutions, including Harvard University, Johns Hopkins and Stanford University identified that certain chemicals gradually build up in your body over time as you age.
Until one day they flick an internal switch that causes your metabolism to drag along at snail’s pace, drop your oxygen levels and dip your hormone levels.
But with the help of certain nutrients, you could help clear out these chemicals and help the adrenals function.
And when this happens, you could restore your energy levels, concentrate and think more clearly and just feel like you´re coping better…
Foods that help improve blood circulation…
Dark Leafy Greens: Spinach, kale, and collard greens are high in nitrates, which convert into nitric oxide in the body – a compound that relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow.
Beets: Beets are packed with nitrates, making them excellent for supporting circulation. Beet juice, in particular, has been shown to enhance athletic performance by increasing oxygen delivery.
Citrus Fruits: Oranges, grapefruits, and lemons are rich in vitamin C, which strengthens capillary walls and prevents plaque buildup, keeping arteries flexible and healthy.
Garlic: Garlic contains allicin, a compound that promotes healthy blood flow by relaxing blood vessels and reducing inflammation.
Fatty fish: Salmon, mackerel and tuna are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which reduce blood viscosity and improve overall circulation.
Berries: Blueberries, raspberries and strawberries contain antioxidants that protect blood vessels and reduce inflammation, boosting flow efficiency.
Nuts and Seeds: Almonds, walnuts, and flaxseeds provide heart-healthy fats and magnesium, helping to regulate blood pressure and enhance circulation.

Drinks that help promote blood circulation…
Green tea: This antioxidant-rich beverage contains catechins that promote blood vessel health and improve circulation.
Red wine: Moderate consumption of red wine provides resveratrol, an antioxidant linked to better blood vessel function and heart health.
Water: Proper hydration keeps blood flowing smoothly and prevents it from becoming too thick.
Pomegranate juice: Packed with polyphenols, pomegranate juice can help reduce arterial stiffness and improve overall vascular health.
Turmeric tea: Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, can help enhance circulation by reducing inflammation and promoting vessel relaxation.
By incorporating some of these circulation-friendly foods and drinks into your diet daily, you can boost your energy, protect your heart, and feel great!
