3 vitamins that can be helpful for blood circulation in the legs 

Blood circulation can be affected by a number of factors, both positively and negatively. Certain factors such as lifestyle, physical activity and diet can either negatively affect the ability of the circulatory system to push blood throughout the body, or improve it if these factors are optimized. Lifestyle, physical activity and diet aren’t the only factors that can contribute to healthy circulation; vitamins can also play an important role. If you’d like to know more about which vitamins you can take to improve your blood circulation in the legs, keep reading below. 

Which vitamins are helpful for blood circulation in the legs? 

  • Vitamin E — Vitamin E is an essential vitamin for preventing the buildup of plaque. It helps reduce the chances of platelets sticking together, which causes buildups of plaque. It can also help prevent cramps in the legs that may be caused by poor blood circulation in the legs. 
  • Vitamin C — This vitamin could be considered a supervitamin for your circulatory health. It’s helpful for a variety of reasons: it has anti-inflammatory properties, it can strengthen the vein walls, and it can heal damage incurred along the vein walls as well. 
  • Vitamin D — Vitamin D can help promote vein elasticity and the contraction of veins. This is essential for helping reduce the risk of rigid veins and veins that can’t contract properly.
