Vitamin E has an antioxidant effect and contributes to the proper functioning of blood vessels, helping to maintain their elasticity and prevent inflammatory processes.

2. Vitamin D – Associated with healthier circulation

Low levels of vitamin D have been linked to circulatory problems. Ensuring adequate levels helps improve vascular health

3. Vitamin C – Strengthens blood vessels

Essential for collagen synthesis and structure of vascular walls. Its antioxidant action also protects against cell damage and promotes iron absorption.

4. Vitamin B3 (Niacin) – Improves blood supply

Niacin dilates the vessels and promotes better blood circulation, being very useful in relieving the feeling of heaviness and tingling

Why do these vitamins work together?

  • Reduction of inflammation and oxidative stress: Vitamin E and C help mitigate radical free damage, protecting blood vessels.
  • Better nutrient absorption: Vitamin C facilitates the use of iron, which is key in the transport of oxygen.
  • Glass relaxation: Niacin has a vasodilatory effect, increasing blood flow.
  • Comprehensive vascular health: Vitamin D is involved in maintaining optimal endothelial function.

Recommended natural sources:

Vitamins and Food Sources
E: Vegetable oils (sunflower, olive), nuts
D: Fatty fish, egg yolk, sun
exposure C: Citrus fruits, peppers, strawberries, broccoli
B3: (niacin) Poultry, fish, lean meat, legumes

Supplementation and precautions:

  • Consult with a healthcare professional: especially if you take blood-thinning medications or have chronic conditions.
  • Recommended doses: usually based on established daily requirements; for example, 15 mg of niacin, 90 mg of vitamin C, 15 mg of vitamin E, or 15 μg of vitamin D, but they can vary from person to person.
  • Avoid excesses: excessive amounts can cause adverse effects, for example, niacin in high doses can cause redness and itching.

To improve circulation in the extremities, combine a diet rich in natural sources of vitamins E, D, C and niacin, along with possible supplementation. This comprehensive approach can noticeably relieve discomfort and improve circulatory well-being safely and effectively.
