A “specialist” reveals a nutritional supplement that protects you from the risk of blood clots as you age

Al-Marsad newspaper: Purolabs nutritionist Stephanie Baker has revealed ways to reduce the risk of blood clots, which travel to vital organs and may lead to medical emergencies such as strokes and pulmonary embolism.

Stephanie said in her statements to “Express”, that coenzyme Q10, which is used as an effective way to prevent clotting, is produced endogenously (made by the body), however, the body produces less as we age. As we enter middle age, supplementing with CoQ10 is one of the most beneficial ways to address the buildup of inflammatory oxidative stress in our blood vessels.

She indicated that magnesium is a vital mineral to help reduce the risk of blood clots because it relaxes (widens) the arteries, helps lower blood pressure and stimulates the heart to pump blood.

Omega 3 is a natural anticoagulant and antioxidant well known for its anticoagulant benefits.

And Stephanie advised, the need for regular movement is the key to reducing the risk of blood clots, so make sure you sit at a desk all day and take regular short breaks to move and stretch your legs, and wear loose clothes that promote blood flow and compression stockings to prevent blood pooling in your legs.
