What to eat to promote blood circulation

Blood viscosity leads to poor blood circulation. As we all know, drinking more water can dilute the blood, but not all water can promote blood circulation. Although some drinks not only taste good but also have certain nutritional value, some of the sugars or pigments in them may irritate the stomach and may even be converted into body fat. Some pigments may even cause cancer. These drinks can only promote excretion of the human body. So what can you eat to promote blood circulation and reduce blood viscosity?

The most ideal drinking water to reduce blood viscosity is cold boiled water or light tea. When boiled water cools naturally to 20-25 degrees Celsius, the chlorine dissolved in it can be reduced by half, but the trace elements beneficial to the human body will not be reduced. Its physical and chemical properties such as tension and density are very similar to the chemical properties of water in biological cells, so it is easily absorbed by the body and penetrates into the skin and subcutaneous tissue, making the subcutaneous fat "semi-liquid" and making the skin elastic.

Some scholars have found that boiled water has special biological activity and can easily penetrate cell membranes to increase the amount of hemoglobin and improve immune function. People who often drink cold boiled water have high deoxygenase activity in their bodies, less lactic acid accumulation in their muscles, and are less likely to feel tired. Drinking water is considered a form of "internal flushing therapy" and is best consumed in the early morning, before meals, and before bed.

Because drinking water in the early morning can be quickly absorbed and utilized, it helps clean the gastrointestinal tract, dilute the blood, accelerate blood circulation, maintain fluid balance, and prevent the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Drink water one hour before meals. When you eat, water will be distributed throughout the body's tissue cells. This will ensure the secretion of sufficient digestive juices to prevent blood concentration and thrombosis. Drinking cold boiled water before going to bed can not only dilute blood viscosity, balance the body's water distribution, and relax nerves, but also promote sleep and help you fall asleep peacefully. It is advisable to drink 200 ml (about 1 large cup) of water each time, and the total water intake should be at least 1000 ml (5 to 7 cups). In addition, brown sugar ginger soup can also promote blood circulation. Brown sugar ginger soup is an old recipe that can promote blood circulation, warm the whole body, and improve cold hands and feet.

In fact, in addition to boiled water and brown sugar ginger soup, there are many things that can improve people's blood circulation. Just maintain a balanced diet, consume enough protein, eat more foods rich in vitamins and minerals, and ensure adequate nutrition. Eat less high-calorie foods such as fatty meat, butter, and fried foods. Also, drink less alcohol and reduce the intake of carbonated drinks. These can promote blood circulation.
