Blender’s Notes Circulation ~ Raynaud’s:
Steep Me Self Help Tea combinations are a wonderful way to get health benefits outside of the standard tea leaf. This combination of herbs was built to help build back your circulation into your lower extremities! A healthy circulatory system supports the entire body with blood and oxygen and is essential for long-term health. Research shows that poor circulation can lead to heart disease. Blood circulation and heart health go together. Most diseases that develop from poor circulation affect the heart. 17% of cardiovascular diseases in the US occur from a stroke, and 100,000 people in the US die from blood clots each year. Narrowed blood vessels, blood clots, and plaque buildup are all major causes of poor circulation. These causes are often the result of high blood pressure and high LDL cholesterol levels. Having high blood pressure, or hypertension, can cause stress on the heart and the arterial walls to harden, which prevents adequate blood flow throughout the body. Conversely, low blood pressure, or hypotension, can also cause an imbalance in blood flow causing a shortage of oxygen and nutrients in cells, tissues, and organs. High LDL cholesterol levels, or hypercholesterolemia, cause fat to stick and harden to artery and vein walls. Over time, it hardens into plaque causing a blockage in the blood vessel and the consequent prevention of blood flow. This blockage is what may cause a stroke. Reducing blood lipid levels and relaxing the arteries are two of the primary ways to improve circulation.
Some common symptoms of circulatory issues include Muscle pain, Issues with mobility, Pale or blue skin, Varicose veins, Cold extremities, Chest pain, Numbness & swelling. Diseases that arise from unhealthy circulation conditions can affect various parts of the body but mostly they negatively affect the heart. These diseases include Peripheral arterial disease, Peripheral vascular disease, Raynaud’s syndrome, Myocardial infarction, Hypertension, Stroke, Blood clots, Anemia. The 11 Best Herbs for Circulation | The Botanical Institute
Raynaud’s disease is a rare and unusual disorder that affects the blood vessels, in the fingers and toes. The hyperactivation of the sympathetic nervous system causes blood vessels to become constricted when you are stressed or cold. This results in blood not reaching the surface of the skin and the areas turning white or blue. When the blood starts flowing, the skin becomes red and can also lead to tissue death. Primary Raynaud’s is another name for Raynaud’s disease, which is idiopathic in nature and has no known cause. There is also secondary Raynaud’s or Raynaud’s phenomenon, which is caused by trauma, other health conditions, or medications. This disorder of your blood vessels reduces flow to your fingers, toes, and other extremities. Raynaud’s syndrome affects an estimated 15 to 30 million Americans or between 5 and 10-percent of the population. Many symptoms include intense sensitivity to cold temperatures, throbbing pain, numbness, spasms, and color changes to the skin. 8 Effective Home Remedies for Raynaud’s Disease | Organic Facts
In this blend we included Black Pepper, Cayenne Pepper, and Turmeric. Black Pepper promotes blood flow to tissues by lowering blood pressure and stimulating the release of nitric oxide and other vasodilators — or compounds that help expand your blood vessels. Cayenne Pepper contains a potent phytochemical called capsaicin, which is responsible for its spicy flavor and other health benefits. Capsaicin can improve blood circulation by increasing nitric oxide production, a vasodilator that relaxes blood vessel walls to allow for better blood flow. According to studies, cayenne pepper can also help strengthen your blood vessels and reduce arterial plaques that block blood flow. Turmeric works as a stimulant to dilate blood vessels, which allows more blood to flow through without increased pressure. A meta-analysis of the effects of turmeric and curcumin was able to reduce systolic blood pressure after long durations of administration. Curcumin improves vascular endothelial function, which is responsible for regulating blood flow, blood fluidity, and angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels. Curcumin also boosts nitric oxide production, resulting in vasodilation and improved blood flow. Ginger was significantly helpful for improving fasting blood sugar, average long-term blood sugar, and cholesterol levels in participants with type 2 diabetes. Improving cholesterol levels has been known to improve circulation. Because of its magnesium, chromium, and zinc content, ginger has been shown to improve circulation significantly. These minerals improve blood flow by lowering blood glucose, triglyceride, cholesterol, and blood pressure levels. Ginger, a popular spice derived from the rhizome of the Zingiber officinale plant, has been associated with various health benefits, including potential support for heart health. Next, we included Bacopa. Bacopa may help keep blood pressure within a healthy range and reduce both systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels. It did this by releasing nitric oxide, which helps dilate blood vessels, resulting in improved blood flow and lower blood pressure. Epimedium because it can also dilate capillaries and so it is used to improve blood circulation and helps to lower blood pressure. We also included Gingko Biloba. Gingko Biloba may improve blood circulation to most parts of the body due to its ability to raise nitric oxide. It is a vasodilator, which widens blood vessels and increases blood flow while lowering blood pressure. Studies show that ginkgo biloba can “immediately” increase blood flow by increasing nitric oxide by 12%. Butcher’s Broom because it may combat chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), a painful condition in which your legs’ veins struggle to deliver blood back to your heart. Several compounds in butcher’s broom help veins contract, allowing blood to return to the heart and significantly reduces tension and swelling around the lower legs and ankles in adults with CVI.
Steep Me Medicinal Mushroom Blend we also included. These mushrooms contain bioactive compounds that can help reduce blood pressure and improve circulation. They can also help prevent plaque buildup in blood vessels and are known for their ability to improve circulation, boost energy levels, and boost the immune system. Mushrooms are rich in essential nutrients and have been identified as therapeutic solutions to combat deterioration of the arteries. Mushrooms may help lower “bad” LDL cholesterol while increasing “good” HDL cholesterol, may have a mild hypotensive effect, potentially aiding in the regulation of blood pressure, contain anti-inflammatory properties may help reduce inflammation in the cardiovascular system, promoting heart health, rich in antioxidants, which combat free radicals that can damage cells and contribute to heart disease and may help protect the heart and blood vessels from oxidative stress, can enhance blood flow and circulation, which is essential for heart health, contain polysaccharides which have a positive impact on blood circulation by enhancing blood flow and promoting cardiovascular health and may help with stress, stress management is crucial for heart health as chronic stress can negatively impact the cardiovascular system. Damiana because it can help manage symptoms of depression, anxiety, nervousness, lethargy, and insomnia. It is considered an adaptogen, helping build the body’s defenses against stress. It may promote relaxation, alleviate physical symptoms (like muscle tension or headaches), and improve overall wellness. We included Ginseng because it can benefit circulation through the regulation of blood pressure levels which makes it the best natural remedy for circulation. The constituents in ginseng, specifically ginsenoside Rg3, have been shown to be the main mechanism for normalizing blood pressure levels due to its ability to relax tension in the blood vessel walls, which helps to reduce blood pressure. We included thyme because it is loaded with potassium, a vital mineral, which is an essential component of cell and body fluids. It aids in regulating heart rate and maintaining blood pressure under normal levels. And finally, we added Yohimbe. Yohimbe is helpful for the sympathetic nervous system because it helps to improve blood flow and circulation throughout the body (this is why some people also use it to help treat erectile dysfunction). Yohimbine can function as a vasodilator (meaning it causes the blood cells to expand.
