More people than ever are living sedentary lifestyles. Whether it be due
to sitting on public transport for extended periods or lounging in
front of the TV in our leisure time, fewer of us are spending fewer
hours on our feet.
There are many dangers that come with a lack
of physical activity – including poor circulatory health. Poor
circulation can lead to many serious health conditions such as obesity,
diabetes, heart disease and varicose veins.
Along with a lack of physical activity, other lifestyle choices that also affect circulatory health include:
• Smoking cigarettes
• Regular alcohol intake
• Regular caffeine intake
With this being said, those who regularly engage in physical activity
can also suffer from poor circulation. Luckily, there are some simple
steps that you can integrate into everyday life which will help promote
circulatory health.
Balanced Diet
The key to overall
health in general always comes back to maintaining a balanced diet.
Proper nutrition helps promote cell growth, boost organ function and
improve circulation.
Try including as many nutrient-rich foods
as possible in your diet, especially those containing antioxidants,
vitamins and minerals which support optimal circulation.
These can include:
• Oranges
• Watermelon
• Garlic
• Sunflower seeds
• Salmon
• Dark chocolate
Regular Exercise
Like proper nutrition, regular exercise is an important aspect of
achieving and maintaining well being – and is the best defence against
circulatory disease.
Those who live an inactive lifestyle are
more likely to develop blood clots, swelling and other circulatory
health problems. The negative health effects of our sedentary lifestyle
have been coined 'sitting disease' – so, getting active each day is
highly important to promote circulatory health.
Just 30 minutes
of walking daily can help improve our blood circulation, along with
other moderate exercises including yoga, cycling or swimming.
Posture
It's easy to fall into a bad habit with posture when slumped over a
desk all day or constantly staring at a television screen – but, proper
spinal alignment is important to circulatory health.
When we
slouch or develop poor postural habits, we are more likely to compress
blood vessels. This means our circulatory system can't deliver essential
nutrients to the body. When sitting, it is important to sit up straight
with our feet placed firmly on the floor.
Kicking the Caffeine Addiction
Caffeine products, such as coffee, can disrupt our circulatory system.
Caffeine increases our heart rate and raises our blood pressure,
especially when consumed in excess.
Try drinking your recommended daily intake of water or herbal teas instead to help support circulatory health.
Remedial Massage
When conducted by a trained remedial therapist, massages can help
stimulate healthy circulation. They are also a great stress reliever and
can reduce hypertension throughout the body.
So, go ahead and treat yourself to a massage... for the benefit of your circulatory health of course!
