Fatty Fish

Fatty fish, such as salmon and mackerel, are high in omega-3 fatty acids. Because they boost the generation of nitric oxide, which dilates your blood vessels and enhances blood flow, these fats are extremely useful for circulation.

Omega-3 fats also aid to prevent platelet clumping in the blood, which can contribute to blood clot formation. Furthermore, fish oil supplements have been related to lower blood pressure and better blood flow in skeletal muscle during and after exercise. In one research, large dosages of fish oil — 4.2 grams daily for four weeks — dramatically increased blood flow to the legs after exercise in ten healthy males.
