Horse Chestnut
Type: Herb
Horse chestnut is a plant that is commonly used for reducing the appearance of varicose veins, the swollen, twisted veins just under our skin.
Typically occurring on our legs, it is often due to long hours of standing and placing pressure on it. Not only varicose veins are unsightly, it can be uncomfortable too. It can cause burning, throbbing, muscle cramping sensation on our legs and swelling.
Horse chestnut is helpful in relieving varicose veins by increasing our blood flow and improve the tone of veins. Additionally, it reduces fluid retention and swelling of the legs.
Individuals who stand a lot (e.g. sales persons, teacher) and suffer from varicose veins, or would simply like to prevent its onset, can benefit from this herb.
