• Poor circulation is extremely common, and becomes
  increasingly likely the older we become. Most of
  this is due to the way we live our lives in the
  modern world. We are much more sedentary than our
  ancestors, for which these human bodies were
  designed.
• Other factors play a role too, for instance, we
  are able to keep warm more easily than they were,
  and this affects circulation too. There are many
  reasons why modern life impacts on blood
  circulation, so lets explore these in more
  depth, and at the same time, provide you with
  some helpful solutions.

• Problem 1 Dehydration
• Many people fail to realise that dehydration
  causes poor circulation. However, when you stop
  and think about it, it makes perfect sense. When
  you are dehydrated, your blood volume goes down
  this in turn decreases blood pressure, which in
  turn means that the heart has to work harder to
  pump the blood around the body.
•  
• So, one way that you can help to increase blood
  circulation is by drinking more, or eating
  water-rich foods, such as cucumbers, tomatoes,
  and celery.

• Problem 2 Lack of Movement
• When you sit or lie down, your body undergoes a
  number of physiological changes. One of these is
  to slow everything down. It thinks that you're
  inactive, and so it tries to conserve energy.
  This was useful 50,000 years ago, but not
  anymore. Today, we sit down a lot, and that means
  our bodies are very much slowed down. If you feel
  sluggish a lot of the time, just ask yourself how
  often you sit down. You should be getting up at
  least once an hour and having a quick walk
  around.

• So, if you suffer from poor circulation, and you
  sit or lie down a lot, the solution is to get up
  and move around a bit more. Remember, your body
  will tell you that it doesnt want to get up
  again, but thats all part of evolution, and once
  you're up, you can get things moving again. Lack
  of movement can be improved the most by doing
  aerobic exercise. You can also try taking a
  supplement, such as aerobic oxygen, but clearly,
  this should be in conjunction with additional
  exercise.

• Problem 3 a Lack of Nutrient-Rich Foods
• If you have poor circulation, then its highly
  likely that you have problems with your diet. In
  particular, you probably eat a high-calorie/nutrie
  nt-deficient diet. Certain foods, especially
  garlic and chilli, can massively improve your
  circulation, so work these into your diet.
