Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Weight training actually made them pop out really bad
Thanks for always listing the steps and supplements below your videos. It's really helpful 😍
Tiffany Bowers did he recommend the horse chestnut in pull form or cream?
Thank you so much Dr Axe for such rich information regarding vericose and spider veins. Suffering a lot these days by it😔
How about feet & iam 35 years young & however a lil overweight working on dropping pounds!!! Pray for me brothers and sisters!!!🙏🏽
Hi Dr Josh Axe, First of all thanks for all your videos. Can you please make an educative video on how to get rid of lipoma?
Thanks Doctor for your valuble information regarding Liver problems, know i am totally well. Thanks. Extend your valuble information to the needy. All the best.
Dr. Axe, Please upload a similar video for Heart health, thank you very much
Try a totally vegan lifestyle ( no refined sugar, no salt, no oil, no animal products + daily exercise)
Thanks so much this was very helpful
Awesome. Thanks! We love you!
Thank you, Dr. Axe. We appreciate everything you can do.
60, male. We live in Nicaragua and are Vegan.
No essential oils around here, no billberrys ?…..no collagen from animal bones.
But, I do wear compression socks at night. During the day it is BEYOND HOT. We do exercise daily. Long walks in the mountains and lifting weights.
I have had blood clots before so I am on Eliquis. Also doing testosterone therapy which thickens my blood.
Lots of challenges. Thanks for the video
Thank you doc.Axe,God bless
Thanks a lot dr Axe! Question: does the cypress and witch hazel essential oils need to go into a base oil for the applaying on the legs?
Thank you so much for your recommendations .
Love your video, just subscribed...going to order my collagen now ;o)!! Thank you, hope this works!!
thank you very much for your use full tips sir.
Thank You so much for your video! I used horse chestnut power dissolved in witch hazel while pregnant with my fifth baby. It helped them from getting worse. I had really bad varicose veins. Towards the end of my pregnancy I started taking a magnesium supplement called Calm by natural vitality. It made the biggest difference in my veins. Most of the pain from them was gone in 3 weeks. I buy it for every pregnant woman I know. I still take it every day and my baby is 6 months old. It really helps!!!!
Started walking 20,000 steps a day and my varicose veins are disappearing.
Are you serious ??
Any update on the progress? Did they disappear?
I walk to work everyday for 20 years . Never stop mine
is it real? do you wear compression socks?
I dont think so
Really great video DR AXE THANKS
Bone broth is awesome!!
I only use organic or biodynamic bones.
Thank you for all the info!
Thanks dr Axe for the great video ❤❤
Thanks Dr Axe. Your a winner
hi Dr Josh, thank u so so much for the video on psoriasis. I've had psoriasis since I was 17. I'm now 39 years old. after watching ur video, I straight away followed everything u said n brought all supplements. first time in all these years I found relief With In 24 hours. I have tears in my eyes. I have psoriasis all over my body n I'm on methotrexate from dermatologist Dr. God bless u. thank u so much. u saved me from this pain.
sweetie 2u cc
Dr. SANDRA LEE CAN CURE U AT THE CLINIC IN WEST LOS ANGELES.
Hi sweetie 2u. Not sure if you're healed. Just wanted to share with you that people can be healed from psoriasis with aloe vera gel and propolis cream. Both from Forever products. I'm not pushing their products but they use the best type of aloe vera and it's effective to a number of conditions. It's the yellow carton Aloe Vera gel 99,7% aloe vera gel, preservative and sugar free.
Soo sorry I have Psoriatic Arthritis.. it’s soo horrible methotrexate helped a little but I’m now on Coestynx injections once a month I’m 90% clear. Within 6 months my brother too The injections are a life changer… I wish I could post pics on here … if you don’t have decent insurance it’s hard to afford the injections.. I’m in Illinois and state helps cover mine❤❤
I've been doing wall squats, and KETO diet. Yes, healthy food is expensive, so I do a lot of intermittent fasting, which is also great for your health. The way I see it, I'm better off fasting then satisfying my hunger with sugary snacks. They might fill the belly, but there is no real sustenance behind them. Anyway, working out and a healthy diet does improve veins. It has helped my spider veins.
Stem cells for varicose veins sounds great..I hope I can afford it. Thanks for the very good info.
Thanks so much for the info!
Great video! Dr. Axe how many mg of horse chestnut extract should we take per day? How often should we take it. Could there be a possible problem with internal bleeding when taking horse chestnut extract? Thank you.
Great info - very helpful. Thanks!
Those options mentioned do not replace treatment for varicose veins, but are helpful for mild cases and are supportive
Organic Chemistry What is your training and what are your treatments for varicose veins?
@@mgm2008 laser therapy. Or vein stripping which is done in the hospital and take 6 to 8 weeks to recuperate. Laser is not non invasive but doesn’t hurt as much as vein stripping.
Exactly these options don't work the only treatment for severe varicose veins is either laser or operations
Thank you Dr. Axe for sharing your wisdom! Please don't let the bad eggs upset you, 99.9% of us truly appreciate you! I'm going to get some of the bone broth powder from your site and I'm wondering which one would be best? Even if there's a combination of them, I just really need to add them in. I can't keep enough bone broth because it's hard to find grass fed beef bones regularly. Anyhoo, thank you again and have a Blessed day! ♡♡♡ Ps...we love the new recipe videos! =)
Thank you never use too much high heel thank you doc live here in Las Vegas
Great video! I posted a video on the incredible results I had having my gnarly hand veins injected!! In the before pics my hand literally looked like the hands of an 80 year old and in the after pics my hands are truly beautiful!! Amazing process!!💝💝💝
Thank you Dr , very informative video. Can you make video on pelvic congestion syndrome please.
Thank you I ordered it all
Namaste Doctor
Thanks for the info
from INDIA
I had mine burn closed a week ago tue. And wow I hurt for 26 years with the pain and now Iam pain free! I feel not knots on my legs when I lay in my bed at night and I say to my self were are they at. Glad they come out with this new surgery!
I bought a house for him it cost me 45,000.00 if it is anything to you
Worng one sorry it cost me 1,000.00 before my dr would touch my leg though you were talking about my ex sorry it was worth it
Thanks so much may the lord bless you.
Thank you doctor! This is Fantastic! However, I prefer to use my Stem Release Factor and just get more of my own stem cells just through nutrition. Or you can eat a lot of seaweed, but the product is more concentrated.
Awesome Dr Axe.
my suggestion is along with your commentary if you can display pictures of every point it will reach the people more. I wish that in next video you will add them.
Visual display/illustration is so important rather than a mere chain of words
Do you consume bone broth or collagen both together or which one should take the most
doc,can I do exercise even if I undergo surgery twice?its my first time hearin' the PRP treatment...tnx alot doc...
thank you very much doctor
Thanks dr. I'll Will try.
fab video. thx doc!!
BLESS YOU.SO GRATEFULL
Hooray fo Dr Axe!!!! Thank u for sharing 👍☺
Thank you dr you are the best
I love his chocolate flavored bone broth.
I’ve seen reduction in appearance of spider veins using Cypress oil mixed with almond oil
. I will try with witch hazel
Talking about PRP, how do you use it exactly ? I am orthopaedic doctor and treat my pacients with PRP for joint diseases.
Rosemarie.......how did you use the witch hazel and how long and how often did you use it.
Would you please do a video on venous insufficiency treatment?
Thank you great info
for cellulitis, exercise. alternate between running and walking and do some lounges...
Great video. Thank you. How much collagen is too much collagen. I use a collagen power.
Josh, it is good to write uncommon terms, so we would rather know their spelling for example the oil, I have never hard of such oil and last one I do know its spelling, that's number five but for sure many may not know, but the rest are pretty much clear.
Nice video thanks
Thanks for sharing 👍
I love your channel! I wish you had a Spanish channel to share with my spanish family!
Thank you Dr Axe for a very informative video on how to get rid of varicose veins. I never appreciated the importance more than I do now. I have always been health conscious but over past three decades, I have not paid as close attention to certain areas of my health. That my body was trying to exhibit to me over time. Varicose veins oddly haven't always been a problem in thirties. They seemed to sneak up over time. What with work office jobs. Trying to get back into more walking and supplement suggestions are appreciated as Ì do not want to ingest drugs into my body unnecessarily. I have been taking an organic COLLAGEN supplement but stopped for awhile due to budget constraints. After downsizing, I will be striving to get back on track with my health overall. Varicose veins being one of those issues. Thank you so much for offering alternative suggestions to improve and hopefully rid my legs of spider and varicose veins soon. Takes time but optimistic and feeling more empowered to correct this health issue for myself.
How about veinous insufficiency in the lower front legs? Would these ideas work for those too?
A friend of mine has been using ginger essential oil and it has helped her immensely.
Does she use the oils on skin?
I had the surgery a week ago...so glad I did.
is it true if you get them removed they come out ten times worse ?
How did you do it
You are a Awesome Dr. Using your on DNA is a wonderful idea Doc. To suggest to your patients & your audience. Great❗❗ You ROCK❗❗😀💯❤️👍🏼⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Are all these things safe to do/take during pregnancy? For instance, is Cyprus oil and witch hazel safe to apply when pregnant? Thanks.
Would elderberry extract do or is it totally different in what bilberry extract does?
I'm literally on my feet all day walking around a busy kitchen at work. Before I started that line of work, I didn't have varicose veins. Now I have one huge one running right the way from the top of my thigh all the way to the ankle 😔
I feel you! I used to work as a operating room nurse and we have the same problem. Try to find stockings you can wear during work and let your feet rest on a higher surface regularly!
Yeah too much sitting and too much walking/standing does that! I did CSR so I sit all day and that’s how I got mine
Haha same been doing it for 15 plus years the kitchen will ruin u not only mentally buy physically
@@damonm4156 yep damn
Yep..same
Rather difficult to get the things you recommend, here in India. Thank you for speaking very clearly, supplemented by the written word. Thank you so much.
Dr Vivek Joshi has great videos, and one on varicose veins. Short and sweet 😊
Thanks De Axe so needed that❤️
Thank you!!
Will using a sauna brush.. and near infrared help circulation and do away with the spider veins??
Dr. Axe, do you have any suggestions for hemorrhoids?
Thank you Doctor 🙏
kindly add pics with name such as of Bill berry so that we know what it is. Thanks
Its in supplement form
Thank you for the Information about Varicose veins.
Do a video on curing GERD. I love all your natural cure videos!
Probiotics work.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Thank you. Please recommend bone broth replacement for vegan / vegetarians.
thanks doctor i love your video
Thanks 4 sharing
I’m so glad for honest Dr’s like you. These videos on UA-cam are becoming more difficult to find. Because of the massive overhaul of censorship. I had a few problems with my varicose veins. They used to give me pain from time-to-time. And then I started running. I had a few lumps and bumps. They’ve nearly all gone bar one. I run 5 miles a week. Running is also good for cells as you’re inhaling more oxygen. It’s good for the bones. It keeps them strong.
What’s in the ‘Bone Broth?’ I don’t eat meat. As we’re plant based people. Meat contains a lot of chemicals which causes cancers.
Subbed to your channel. You need to get together with Dr. Dale Brown. Lol
Thankyou Dr for the useful information
I thought that running was bad for veinous insufficiency ?
Bone broth has beef bones or chicken bones with apple cider vinegar added to the water and cooked slowly. The vinegar leaches the goodness from the bones that you are cooking. I made 4 to 6 quarts at a time use 3 or 4 and freeze some.
You buy bones and slow boil them for hours. Or just use collagen from the store.
Thank you that was so helpful-but I have Ehlers Danlos syndrome will collagen help me?
Thank you very much. I had a large blood clot under my knee in an artery, the size of a large grape. The doctor prescribed pills, I drank them, but the general condition was very bad, I could not step on my foot, and I had no strength at all, I even spoke with difficulty, I just lay there. It was so bad that I thought it was all over. Cellular nutrition helped me, I began to take it, and after the first intake, strength appeared, it is easier to speak. A week later, an ultrasound scan showed that the thrombus had resolved, although the doctor warned us that you should adjust for 3 months not earlier. I am sure that it was due to the cellular nutrition that the thrombus was so quickly resolved, it turns out that cellular nutrition thins the blood and improves the quality of the blood. A month later, blood tests were normal👌😁
What's cellular nutrition?
I love this guy
I'm confused. "Getting rid of" is very different from preventing varicose veins. Once they are bulging, they aren't going to just go away no matter what you do. These tips may stop them from getting worse.
When I lying down right side my bulging veins completely go normal
This video is ridiculous.
I've heard a combination of walking and exercise, especially intense exercise actually will get rid of them. It usually takes a couple years but it will work unless you have extremely severe ones- then it can take longer or you may have to get them surgically fixed. It just depends
@@GameChanger597 total nonsense.
@@GameChanger597 does the same happen with spider veins?
good video :)
thank you
Thank you so much for this information. ... however I'm vegetarian so what would you suggest as a replacement for the bone broth?
Stop being vegetarian.
Stop being vegetarian for a while. Eat the right things, recover... go back to vegetarian if you like. Or just do an exemption with bone broth. We need it for so many issues....
I mean vegetable broth exist.. but BONE broth is going to be extremely hard to replace!!
(You can always just go organic instead of being full vegan)
You cannot replace bone broth, or meat for that matter sorry to say. It’s has been a while since this comment and I hope you have come to this conclusion by now.
All the best🌺
Any suggestions for preventing/reducing varicose veins in strength athletes?
Hey man you find any help? I also do Calisthenics and weight lifting and am worried I'm making it worse???
I’ve had to stop running and weightlifting because I’m certain they will make (have made) them worst. All that intense pressure. I walk, cycle and row. Anything to get the circulation going
Great info as always. Do you have a video or other info about best treatments for Gout arthritis? I've tried tart cherry juice, but still struggling more and more. Would love info on that!
Leisa Hockett look up Dr.Sebi ☺ he will be a great help For getting rid oF arthritis and other diseases .
Do these completely get rid of varicose veins like they were never their to begin? Are these effective with varicocele as well?
I've just had stripping for the second time. Also had Injections on 2 other occasions in my left leg.
Surgery is the gold standard way to treat them however I would only advise this if it causes excessive pain as the surgery is quite evasive.
Touching on exercise I'm a Personal Trainer and I do fitness classes everyday as well as my own training.
I find that while I'm training pretty much all the symptoms go away but I do wonder if some things make it worse, it's hard to tell and is pretty much a guessing game.
My opinion on this since struggling from the age of 13 and now I've struggled with it for 20 years is to just live your life.
Eat well and look after your body.
I get a lot of swelling and found that Serrapeptase is the only thing that keeps this at bay. This also disolves blood clots so if anyone suffers from DVT this should help them too.
what is DVT stands for?
@@abdulqureshi5851 deep vein thrombosis
I had the surg on both legs days apart and they did not give me anything for pain. It was an experience. I hope that i never have to go thru that again
Did you have the option for laser surgery? I’m having that on one leg May 2. Dr said it was in and out in an hour and I could go back to work the next day.
Dr., can you recommend a collagen supplement that I can take(or do) daily? Tyvm!
Natural collagen source...bone broth...
Visit ancient nutrition he answered the store online with Jordan Rubin
There are collagen powders.. sold at costco or fresh food markets.
Thank you for these tips on healing varicose veins. There are so many varicose vein treatments out there. Sometimes it's difficult to find one that works well for you. Cypress essential oil for varicose veins works well for me.
1HealthyClick what oil do you buy? Also when did you start to see results. Are the veins on your legs? Lol thanks!
I like to use cypress essential oil on my leg veins. Make sure you get therapeutic grade essential oils. Essential oils are my go-to for any thing that ails me. I've noticed the blue color has faded a bit. I know it takes awhile for the essential oils to work on veins. I hope you can find a solution that works well for you. Have a great day, Jake Misel!
1HealthyClick oh it takes a while :( how long did you notice it start to work? Also thanks for the info, much appreciated !
Well, more than anything, I noticed that Cypress essential oil took away the pain almost immediately. That was the biggest change I noticed. I've been using Cypress oil for a couple of months, but still see some of the blue lines. These are larger varicose veins, not tiny spider veins. The blue is lighter, but it will take more time to heal. I hope that helps. If you're interested in taking away the appearance, there are creams available that help. But essential oils help heal, in my opinion. Thanks for posting and asking!
1HealthyClick okay! Yes for appearance what cream do you recommend?
I got a bunch of new spider veins and a new varicose vein (or 2) after mowing the yard yesterday. Maybe the type of excersize makes a difference. I got toe cramps just hours later then woke up to this. Ughh!
I just turn red when I'm in the heat. I only sweat in certain areas. My legs get red blotches from the sauna but never sweat. I don't know why. I think my head, neck and back sweat but that's all.
Does rebounding help with veins?
I started out with edema and hear rebounding works for that.
The area to brush my skin is getting smaller and smaller
Your generosity towards my infection is incomparable. You assured me of getting healed and surprisingly after 14days of taking the medication I was tested for Negative. Thanks Dr igho I will keep letting the world know about your UA-cam channel.
I have found that red vine extract and horse chestnut work well together. You must excercise everyday as well.
Of course! In fact the exercise is so important that you could just leave off the expensive red wine extract and horse chestnut. It's the exercise, dummy!😜😄😄😄
@Pamela Nolan you take them in capsule form - so orally. Don't confuse red vine with red wine.
From what I've read about goth kola that's sound like a fantastic option as well
Thank you! I was looking for witch hazel oil, but I find only water distillates, where can I find it?
What is witch crafts and supress oil? Please let me know have lovely night c.t
good info
Hi Dr. Axe, can I use the essential oils for testicular varicocele?
I need this answer as well.
