What causes poor circulation?

There are a number of reasons for poor circulation such as age, general health, hereditary factors such as parents having poor circulation as well, as a lack of exercise or lifestyle can be contributory factors. These are often built up over a period of time.

Work related issues, such as sitting too long at a computer can cause these problems. Eating too much junk food can be another prime reason.

Making small lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking or losing weight can lead to quick improvements. Regular, moderate exercise can also do wonders for your circulation.

A.Vogel’s Ginkgo biloba tincture or tablets can also improve poor circulation. It helps to increase the blood flow through the capillaries (the tiny blood vessels that lead off from small arteries, deep into the tissues and organs), and it can relax and open up capillaries that were previously unused.
