Fats derived from milk, red meat, fried foods, animal meats (ham, sausage, etc.), bacon, butter, margarine, very cooked dishes and oiled, pickled, canned or processed sugar products, everything fried (potatoes toast, etc.).

Blueberries are rich in Vitamin P, which increases endurance by reducing capillary fragility and are excellent for improving micro-circulation, as well as to promote the regeneration of retinal pigments. We recommend eating this fruit daily, as if they were grapes, especially in cases of capillary fragility, bleeding disorders or venous insufficiency, as well as in cases of poor night vision.

Garlic is one of the best allies of good blood circulation, among a long list of benefits, has vasodilator properties, which help your circulation improves remarkably quickly. For best utilization, take garlic in fast with a glass of warm water daily.
