Heavy Legs

In this context, Cellular Nutrition offers particularly effective solutions by strengthening vascular walls, improving microcirculation, and correcting hormonal imbalances.

To understand these mechanisms, this assessment explores several interconnected physiological axes:

• Metabolic: excess weight, increased abdominal pressure and blood volume favouring water retention and circulatory disorders.
• Circulatory: heavy legs, swelling or pain at the end of the day linked to venous and lymphatic insufficiency, worsened by inactivity.
• Gut & microbiota: chronic constipation compressing abdominal circulation, intensifying venous stasis and water retention.
• Hormonal: hormonal fluctuations (PMS, menstruation, oestrogen/progesterone imbalance) promoting fluid retention, venous congestion, and circulatory fatigue.
• Neuropsychic: persistent fatigue, dopamine and serotonin deficits affecting vascular tone; poor sleep and excess cortisol aggravating venous stasis and inflammation.
• Dietary & lifestyle: excess salt, sugar, gluten, dairy, alcohol, fizzy drinks or processed foods that stiffen vascular walls, favour water retention, and maintain circulatory inflammation.

This assessment highlights the dominant imbalances and identifies priority levers through nutritional optimisation and targeted micronutritional supplementation, with the aim of supporting circulation, reducing vascular inflammation, and sustainably improving leg comfort.
