Vitamin D
How It Helps: Vitamin D supports healthy blood vessels and reduces inflammation. A deficiency in this vitamin can lead to poor circulation and fluid retention, both of which contribute to swelling.
Sources: Sunlight exposure, fatty fish (salmon, tuna), fortified dairy products, egg yolks.
Key Benefit: Reduces inflammation and supports healthy circulation to help alleviate swelling.
Vitamin K
How It Helps: Essential for blood clotting and circulation, vitamin K strengthens blood vessels and capillaries, preventing fluid leakage into tissues that causes swelling. It is particularly effective for swelling due to varicose veins.
Sources: Leafy greens (kale, spinach, broccoli), Brussels sprouts, green beans.
Key Benefit: Strengthens blood vessels, reducing fluid retention and swelling.
