Healthy Veins and Circulation |

 n estimated 30 million Americans
suffer from chronic venous insufficiency
(CVI), varicose veins and heavy,
swollen ankles and feet. Affecting primarily
women, this venous insufficiency is also characterized
by leg cramps, tingling sensations
and spider veins. As veins and capillaries lose
their tone, blood pools in the lower extremities
and fluids leak into surrounding tissues,
causing edema or swelling. Circulation stagnates,
creating fatigue, discomfort, numbness
and the feeling of heavy legs.
Varicose veins (venous disease) or other
circulatory complaints such as swollen calves
(edema) and hemorrhoids (another form of
varicosity) affect more than 50 percent of the
middle-age population in the U.S.
Genetics has a great deal to do with the
chances of having varicose veins in your legs;
however your choice of careers plays a role as
well. Some of the occupations predisposed to
venous difficulties are those that demand long
hours on the feet such as sales, teaching, hospitality,
manufacturing, nursing, hair styling
and construction. Obese persons, pregnant
women and the elderly are at greater risk.
Overall, women are four times as likely to
develop varicose veins as men.
Although it is rare, varicose veins can lead
to more significant health problems such as
phlebitis (inflammation of the veins), painful
venous ulcers and dangerous blood clots. In
the event of any complications it is recommended
that the individual seek medical treatment
immediately.
Keeping the venous system healthy can
minimize the risks of these conditions. While
a variety of helpful herbs are well-known,
there is an evidence-based formula Rusperin
C™, whose safety and efficacy is backed with
over 40 years of positive clinical research.
Rusperin C is a formula composed of two
proprietary compounds, Butcher’s broom
extract and hesperidin methyl chalcone, as
well as vitamin C.
The formula delivers natural botanical
activity as a vein tonic (venotonic), providing
functional benefits by reducing the diameter
of veins carrying blood, increasing the rate of
venous blood circulation and reducing the
permeability of the vessels to prevent fluid
leakage into the tissues (edema).
Double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical
trials demonstrate that the specific combination
of ingredients in this formula is safe and
truly effective. It improves the appearance of
the legs and fights the feeling of heavy legs, so
the legs not only look more attractive but feel
more alive.
In 1999 a randomized double-blind,
placebo-controlled study was conducted to
determine the efficacy of the Rusperin C formula
in patients with uncomplicated chronic
venous insufficiency. The participant assessment
criteria was that they evidenced the clinical
and physical symptoms of edema. Patients
were instructed to take two capsules of the
Rusperin C formula or placebo after meals for
60 days. Results of the study showed significant
reduction in ankle circumference, the
sensation of evening edema and tired leg
symptoms.
The results of treatment with the Rusperin
C formula (with four capsules daily) of venous
insufficiency of the legs in pregnant women
were evaluated on the whole as being good
and very good in nearly 75 percent of cases, on
the basis of a clinical trial with 2092 cases of
pregnancy.
The Rusperin C formula has also been found to be an effective treatment within individuals suffering from hemorrhoids.
While you cannot pick your parents and
you may not be keen on changing careers, you
can help your venous system by maintaining a
healthy weight, exercising—especially activities
that involve short muscle contractions
such as walking and biking—and by supplementing
the diet with Rusperin C.
