HMR-X contains ingredients that may help strengthen the veins, reduce their permeability and improve blood circulation. Recent clinical trials using a combination of Butchers Broom (Ruscus aculeatus) extract, Hesperidin Methyl Chalcone and Vitamin-C document the helpful benefits for chronic venous insufficiency and improved circulation. Horse Chestnut extract, Grape Seed and Grape Skin extracts are well known for strengthening veins and improving circulation. Witch Hazel and Curcumin extract are known for their anti-infective and anti-inflammatory properties. Hemorrhoids and Varicose Veins are the result of weak veins and excessive pressure on them. Some of the contributory factors include pregnancy, prolonged diarrhea, excessive straining exerted during heavy lifting, standing or sitting for long periods and genetic disposition. Any venous congestion in the anorectal area can lead to formation of hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are a painful conglomeration of vessels and tissues of the anorectal area and often appear as baggy swellings. Internal hemorrhoids originate above the internal sphincter of the anus. Sometimes they can protrude from the anus causing further constriction and pain. Usually bleeding occurs when the hemorrhoidal vein ruptures. Symptoms associated with hemorrhoids include burning, itching and bleeding. Chronic loss of blood can potentially result in severe anemia.
