Poor Circulation

Poor circulation doesn’t always feel dramatic. It can show up as cold hands or feet, numbness, tingling, slow healing, or fatigue that gets worse with activity. Some people notice heaviness in their legs or mental sluggishness when blood flow feels off, even though routine tests don’t point to a clear cause.

Circulation depends on healthy blood vessels, balanced inflammation, and efficient metabolism. These systems are shaped in part by your DNA. Small genetic differences can influence how blood vessels respond to stress, how fats and sugars are processed, and how inflammation affects blood flow. When these processes are strained, circulation can suffer quietly over time.

If you want to understand how your genetics may be influencing blood flow and vascular health, the Silver Helix Nutritional Genetics Test can help. It looks at your individual genetic patterns to provide insight into nutritional and wellness approaches that may better support circulation, helping guide more personalized discussions with your care team.
