Rutin is a Bioflavonoid
Rutin works quickly. Some find relief in a couple of days. For others, it takes 1 to 2 weeks to see results.
Rutin, which strengthens the walls of veins and capillaries, potentially reducing the pain and severity of varicose veins.
Rutin is a potent antioxidant. Rutin is a bioflavonoid extracted from the flowers of the Sophora japonica tree. Rutin is present in many foods, including citrus fruits, apricots, blueberries, blackberries, cherries, rose hips, and buckwheat
It helps to strengthen the veins. It also reduces inflammation.
I had given birth 6 years ago and have had a mild case of hemmorrhoids almost all of those 6 years. They recently got painful and severly swollen for the first time and the women at the health food store recommended rutin. Within 3 days all the swelling was gone, even the painless swelling that persisted since childbirth disappeared. I have poor circulation and sometimes in the dry months get itchy swollen varicose veins behind my knees. This has not been a problem since taking the rutin supplement. A good complement to this herb is horse chestnut, especially for those with varicose veins.
