Horse Chestnut (Horse Chestnut Extract, Aesculus h)
Historically, horse chestnut has
been used in the soothing of painful surface and muscular veins
in the skin, toning and strengthening the surface architecture
and supporting tissue of the skin, reducing the "veininess"
that sometimes occurs with stress and tiredness. Because it
stimulates circulation, horse chestnut helps with varicose veins,
ankle swelling, nighttime leg cramping, itching, and feelings
of heaviness. The extract of the horse chestnut seed has been
used to alleviate hemorrhoids.
