Leg edema is the most common "fourth problem". Waste and toxins accumulated in the legs, together with body fluids trapped in the legs due to gravity, will directly lead to edema and obesity in the legs.

The third measure is to eat and reduce your legs.
1, vitamin e helps to remove edema. Poor blood circulation can easily lead to edema of feet. Foods containing vitamin E help to speed up blood circulation and prevent leg muscles from relaxing. Foods rich in vitamin E include almonds, peanuts and wheat germ.
2. Vitamin B accelerates metabolism. Vitamin B 1 can convert sugar into energy, while B2 can accelerate the metabolism of fat and eat more foods rich in vitamin B, such as mushrooms, sesame, tofu, peanuts and spinach.
3. Eating less salt can eliminate edema, and eating salty food often makes it easy to accumulate too much water in the body and form edema, which is easy to accumulate on the calf.

Four foot acupoints
action principle
Every organ of the human body has a corresponding nerve extending to the foot, and people often say that the reflex zone is the peripheral nerve block zone. Experiments have proved that human feet are the epitome of the three-dimensional distribution of body organs and tissues. When the gland or viscera is abnormal, the corresponding reflex area of the foot will also react, which is the pain point. In other words, if you feel pain in all parts of your foot, it means that there is something wrong with the relevant body organs at that point. In addition, the tactile response of each pain point is different, some are granular, some are like fine sand, and some feel swollen. Regular massage of acupoints on the feet can eliminate toxins and wastes in the body, thus playing a role in treating diseases. In this respect, massage wheels are often used in China, which is convenient to use. The lower limbs are coordinated by massage wheels, involving muscles and bones of thighs, calves, knees, ankles, soles and toes, and the massage effect is concentrated on soles and soles.

tocopherol
Vitamin E can decompose accumulated fat and cholesterol, promote blood circulation, let fresh blood reach the leg farthest from the heart, and give cells brand-new oxygen and nutrition. If the vein is congested, the tissue fluid will also be congested, and the legs will easily become thicker.
potassium
The point of stovepipe is not to eat too much salt. If you eat too much salt, your body will want to drink more water, resulting in water accumulation in your body and edema-type puffiness. Potassium can help salt metabolize out of the body and improve obesity symptoms.
calcium (Ca)
The human body contains about 1 kg of calcium. If you want to keep your legs straight, there must be no less calcium in your bones. Insufficient calcium intake will affect nerve transmission and intellectual development, and even produce muscle spasm. To reduce leg injuries caused by exercise, don't forget to add more calcium!

Vitamin B2 can accelerate the metabolism of fat. People who think they have too much body fat should take more vitamin B2.
cellulose
