Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba)

The knowledge of the medicinal properties of this plant dates back to Antiguidade. A Ginkgo acts on the entire circulatory system, improving circulation arterial, venous and capillary. Exerts a vasodilatory effect. Has vasoprotetora action, antioxidant, antiplatelet and neuro protective. Displays benefits on blood microcirculation. The Ginkgo tones vein walls, facilitating the return of blood. Thus is indicated in varicose vein, phlebitis, feeling of heavy legs and ankles swollen (to decrease capillary permeability, with consequent reduction of fluid accumulation in the tissues). It can also be used to help relieve vertigo, tinnitus, memory loss, difficulty concentrating, headache, dizziness, symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome, visual pathologies such as glaucoma and AMD (macular degeneration related to age) Alzheimer's disease and other dementias and problems in the sexual performance, sometimes following the intake of certain antidepressants (with erectile dysfunction or decreased libido as a secondary effect).

 

Meliloto (Melilotus officinalis)

It is a plant that provides protection to the blood vessels, the presence of flavonoids in their constitution. It is also sedative, antispasmodic, and diuretic. The Meliloto has other medicinal properties, ie, it is venotonic, anticoagulant and stimulates the proper functioning of the lymphatic system. This is due mainly to the presence of melilotosido (coumarin glycosides), which subsequently turns on coumarin. Has the ability to reduce the capillary permeability and thin the blood, making it effective in treating varicose veins and tromboses. Also beneficial in cases of phlebitis, hemorrhoids and edema and the prevention of embolisms. The Meliloto can also be useful against anxiety, nervousness and insonia. A external level is slightly astringent and anti-inflammatory.

 

Gilbardeira (Ruscus aculeatus)

The Gilbardeira, rich in flavonoids and saponosidos has properties venotonicas relevant, providing important protection to the entire circulatory system. The saponosidos beyond the venotonic effect (possibly with vegetable is the greatest action venotonica), are also responsible for anti-inflammatory action of this plant. Since flavonoids have antioxidant, diuretic, anti edematous and protective hair. The combined action of these compounds contributes to the decrease in permeability of the veins. Thus, Gilbardeira improves blood flow to the brain, upper limbs and lower limbs. It is particularly indicated for the treatment of varicose veins, phlebitis, varicose ulcers, heavy legs, edema and hemorrhoids. It also facilitates venous return, reduces fluid retention, strengthening the walls of the capillary and decreases the pressure in the artery walls. It has a vasoconstrictor effect. A clinical study showed that people with chronic venous insufficiency and varicose veins, experienced significant improvements in symptoms with ingestion of Gilbardeira. This plant also has properties sweat and laxatives.

 

Cranberry or American Cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpori)

The main constituents of the extract are similar to American Cranberry Extract Vine. lt is a very rich source for oligomeric procyanidins (OPC), which gives this plant a good anti-inflammatory and strong antioxidant power. These properties make it useful in the American Cranberry numerous pathologies. It is very effective in cases of vascular disease, including varicose veins, retinopathy, chronic venous insufficiency, hemorrhoids and tired legs. There is an inhibition of collagen destruction and improving the peripheral blood circulation by increasing blood vessels vascular.Protege resistance against inflammation caused by free radical attack, regenerates the walls of veins and capillaries and enhances its elasticity. It also reduces the permeability of capillaries. This plant is useful in diseases such as cancer, inflammatory disorders originating, heart disease, vision problems and cholesterol elevado.Outra pharmacologic action of oligomeric procyanidins feature is protection against bacterial adhesion. Recent studies have revealed that the OPC have a great capacity to inhibit the adhesion of pathogenic bacteria to cells of the urinary tract. This is extremely beneficial for the prevention and treatment of symptomatic urinary tract infections (UTI). Compounds are also active American Cranberry, resveratrol (helps to prevent the development of certain tumors and decreases the levels of fats in the blood) and tannins (improve venous return, favoring contraction of muscle cells along the veins).

 

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera)

The Vine extract has powerful natural antioxidants, including polyphenols compounds (anthocyanosides, flavonoids, resveratrol) and tannins. Due to its content of oligomeric procyanidins (OPC), has an important anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, is effective against numerous diseases such as cancer, inflammatory disorders originating, heart disease, vision problems, high cholesterol, viral infections. In addition, it is also very useful in cases of vascular disease (varices, retinopathies, chronic venous insufficiency, heavy legs, piles, etc.), since it contributes to the improvement of peripheral blood circulation by increasing the resistance of vessels Blood (inhibits the destruction of collagen), protects against inflammation caused by free radical attack, regenerates the walls of veins and capillaries and enhances its elasticity. Vitis vinifera is venotonica, astringent and diuretic. Resveratrol increases the capacity of inhibiting the development of certain tumors and reduction of fats in sangue. Os tannins favor the contraction of the muscle cells along the vein, which in turn improves the venous return.The Vine is also very important to the health and integrity of the skin.

 

Horse chestnut tree (Aesculus hippocastanum)

The medicinal properties of this plant are due mainly to its major constituents. We highlight the saponins (escin), the coumarin glycosides (esculoside), flavonoids and phytosterols.Escin esculoside and give it properties venotonicas, increasing the resistance of capilares. Segundo studies, these compounds have a hemostatic effect and is effective in cases of venous insufficiency, pain and a feeling of heavy legs, muscle spasms overnight, pruritus in the lower and chronic venous insufficiency. The phytosterols significantly reduce plasma levels of total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol ("bad cholesterol"). Hypercholesterolemia is a risk factor for the onset of circulatory problems.The Chestnut India has also anti-inflammatory properties. Exercises control over the permeability of blood vessels, especially capillaries and venules. It is thus very important in preventing and treating edema. This plant has benefits in venous insufficiency, varicose veins, varicose ulcers, swelling of the lower limbs, hemorrhoids and poor circulation. Rutinalt is an important bioflavonoid with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. This compound provides protection to blood vessels. Prevents its fragility (especially capillaries), increasing the resistance of its walls and thus reduce the permeability of same. Rutin is, therefore, particularly useful for treating frequent hemorrhages, hematomas, varicose veins and hemorrhoids. Displays anti thrombotic activity, cytoprotective and anticancer.
