Varicose veins arise because our organism intelligently pushes unneeded acids and harmful substances away to the ends of the body, where the strain is least due to the distance from the heart.
Healthy veins transport used blood back to the heart. Our legs have a deep and surface vein structure. This is located above the muscle, in other words more towards the surface of the skin, in the subcutaneous fatty tissue.
When skin veins become enlarged, these are known as spider veins, which present more of a cosmetic problem. But they can also develop into varicose veins.
With varicose veins the veins are enlarged and the venous valves no longer work, with the result that the transport of blood is no longer guaranteed at this spot. The blood, which is full of waste products and low in oxygen, overloads the vein system here. Depending on the extent, this can lead to inflammations of the veins right through to leg ulcers. Further symptoms can include swelling, heavy legs, circulation problems, poor fitness and cold feet.
Reduce or avoid acidifiers, give up smoking and reduce your stress level.
We recommend a rounded alkaline-generating diet including plenty of vegetables, salads, raw foods, fruit, seeds and WurzelKraft (AlkaLife) aromatic or fruity. This contains a wide variety of valuable and important vital substances, which when supplied from outside protect and regenerate the body’s own mineral deposits, such as the veins.
These vital substances from plants also have a high level of bio-availability, and the body can use them very effectively to neutralise acids and harmful substances. Thus these stressful substances can be transported and eliminated by the body, above all through the kidneys. Taking four tablespoons of WurzelKraft (AlkaLife) during the day has also proved to be useful.
To start your day off well, eat the alkaline-generating breakfast MorgenStund’ every day, adding several tablespoons of WurzelKraft, fruit, nuts and perhaps a dash of cream, soya milk or rice milk.
Raw foods and salads can best be digested at lunchtime. In the evening steamed vegetables are recommended, with potatoes, millet etc., a hotpot or vegetable soup. Your evening meal should not be too generous and you should not eat later than 19.00.
In general it is important to drink 1.5-2 litres of non-carbonated water during the day. In addition you are recommended to drink 0.5-1.5 litres of 7x7 KräuterTee (7x7 AlkaHerb), amongst other things so as to release waste products in the veins.
Alkaline foot baths and full baths and AlkalineStockings support the elimination of acids and harmful substances through the skin. Daily alkaline foot baths and one alkaline full bath a week are recommended.
During these baths, you should brush in the elimination direction, but do not brush in the areas where you have varicose veins. Your bath temperature should be as cool as possible, and preferably below 30°C. If your bath is too warm, the veins will enlarge unnecessarily. After a full bath, the areas of varicose veins should also be rinsed in cold water.
Depending on how you tolerate them, the AlkalineStockings can be used overnight or also for 1-2 hours or longer during the day.
Alkaline enemas support the purification process and cleanse the large intestine in a very gentle and natural way. As an enema fluid we recommend 7x7 KräuterTee (7x7 AlkaHerb) with a pinch of MeineBase (AlkaBath).
Regular exercise, preferably in the fresh air, will stimulate the blood flow via the muscle pump and will thus counteract the varicose veins. Swimming, cycling or jumping on the trampoline are all suitable.
If you suffer from spider veins and varicose veins, avoid becoming overweight, do not wear high heels and when you are sitting don’t cross your legs!
