Capillary fragility Archives

Diets rich in polyphenols appear to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, and flavonoids (commonly called bioflavonoids) are the dominate type. Citrus flavonoids have been found to strengthen capillaries. Quercetin and catechins are flavonoids commonly found in foods. Wine, green tea and chocolate contain catechins. Flavonoids are antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. They reduce a number of […]

Buckwheat sprouts contain antioxidants and trace minerals. Rutin, a flavonoid, is not found in cereals except for buckwheat, which is a good source of rutin. Rutin is an antioxidant that reduces capillary fragility, high blood pressure (hypertension), edema and arteriosclerosis. Trace elements act as cofactors for antioxidant enzymes superoxide dysmutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase. Buckwheat […]
