The Horse Chestnut seed powder contained in these capsules helps maintain good circulatory comfort and keep legs feeling light.
Horse Chestnut is rich in aescin, its main active ingredient, a mixture of saponins. It is traditionally used to help improve the resistance of small blood vessels, and for circulatory well-being. In fact, it tones circulation, helping to restore light legs and overall circulatory health.
Each capsule contains a concentrated extract of horse chestnut, obtained from plants grown according to organic farming standards. This plant is renowned for its veinotonic properties, which promote blood circulation and help reduce the oedema and discomfort associated with venous problems.
Horse chestnut acts primarily by strengthening blood vessel walls, improving their elasticity and tone. By promoting more fluid blood circulation, it helps to reduce the sensation of heaviness in the legs and alleviate the symptoms of venous disorders, such as varicose veins and cramps.
The Horse Chestnut extract contained in Arkogélules is selected for its vasoprotective and veinotonic properties, which effectively support blood circulation. Traditionally used for its benefits to the circulatory system, Horse Chestnut contains saponins, known as escin, which help reduce capillary permeability and strengthen veins. Regular consumption of these capsules can thus help reduce the sensation of heavy legs, particularly for individuals with prolonged sedentary or standing activities. By making these capsules part of your health routine, you can help maintain optimal venous function, essential for an improved quality of life.
Arkogélules Horse Chestnut offers a natural response to people suffering from the discomfort of venous swelling, such as that associated with hemorrhoids and varicose veins. Thanks to escin's anti-inflammatory action, these capsules reduce not only inflammation, but also the sensation of pain that can accompany swelling. This phytosanitary treatment also helps reduce edema by stimulating return circulation. Its capsule formulation ensures optimal assimilation of the active ingredients, providing gradual, long-lasting relief.
Flavonoids, notably quercetin and kaempferol, present in Horse Chestnut, play a crucial role in protecting and toning vein walls. These powerful antioxidants help combat the free radicals responsible for cell ageing and weakened veins. By strengthening blood vessels and increasing their resistance, Arkogélules Horse Chestnut helps prevent the onset of venous disorders. It's an essential supplement for those seeking to preserve their venous health over the long term, using a gentle method that respects the body's natural balance.
