Vitamin K has been widely used in medicine for its blood clotting properties. Vitamin K is a fat soluble vitamin and the K is derived from the German word "Koagulation" which in english means coagulation, hence its blood clotting ability. So what use is this for treating spider veins? When small blood vessels near the skins surface become damaged, a small tear can develop which leaks blood. This blood then runs down the outside of the blood vessel, and bingo! you have a spider vein. Vitamin K can be applied to the skin to help the torn blood vessel to heal. Your body then dissolves the remaining leaked blood naturally, which causes the spider veins to fade away. You can also use Vitamin K to treat bruises. If you bruise very easily like i do, try applying Vitamin K to the affected area, it will reduce the redness and bruising very quickly. The main factor in the use of Vitamin K is the strength, clinical trials have proved that low doses do not do much to help you, so if you want to try any supplements go for one that has a higher concentration. Vitamin K can be the alternative to sclerotherapy or laser removal. There are many testimonials from people who have noticed improvements in their spider veins by using vitamin k. Another benefit of Vitamin K is that it helps bone density, and promotes arterial health, it helps to stop arteries from getting clogged up. If you wish to buy Vitamin K click here (US)
