Understanding and Managing Chronic Venous Hypertension
Chronic Venous Hypertension (CVH) is a condition characterized by prolonged high blood pressure within the veins of the legs, leading to a range of symptoms and complications that can significantly impact a person’s quality of life. While the condition is often associated with aging, it can affect individuals of all ages, including those with a history of vein disorders, prolonged standing or sitting, or obesity.

When it comes to maintaining overall health, the importance of diet cannot be overstated. What we consume directly impacts our body’s ability to function, repair, and thrive. For those concerned with vein health—whether due to conditions like varicose veins, chronic venous insufficiency, or a general desire to maintain healthy circulation—adopting an anti-inflammatory diet can play a crucial role in both prevention and management.
