Now that the weather is warmer, chances are that you’re showing a little more leg – in fact, 83% of Canadian women say that the appearance of their legs is important to them, and so it’s always nice to be able to share solutions that can impact the health of your legs for the better.
CVI – or Chronic Venus Insufficiency – is a condition that’s characterized by swollen legs, the appearance of varicose veins, and heavy painful-feeling legs. Many women who have the condition don’t even realize it! The symptoms are caused by the impairment of blood flow in the legs, so that blood pools in the lower limbs causing for some pain, swelling, heaviness, tiredness, and varicose veins. It’s not a pretty condition and it feels terrible too!
The condition can be caused by long periods of sitting or standing, lack of exercise, wearing tight clothing, and wearing high-heeled shoes.
There is an over-the-counter remedy available, called Antistax. Antistax is a herbal medicine
that alleviates the symptoms of CVI and can be found in the supplements section of your local pharmacy.
If you’ve been experiencing the symptoms of CVI, see a doctor to find out if Antistax might be a remedy for you – and visit Antistax.ca to find out more.
