There are many different old wives’ recipes for varicose veins, but only a few of them are actually effective.
If you are among those whose health problem1 makes life miserable, then we have for you one truly effective recipe from Russian folk medicine.
How to remove varicose veins in just 2 weeks
It’s a rather revolutionary recipe, which is also very simple to prepare. Its basis is an unripe green tomato.
It’s best to get organic-quality tomatoes. If you can’t find such, ordinary ones will suffice.
Proceed as follows:
1. Take a couple of green tomatoes, wash them and slice them into thicker slices.
2. Apply them to the affected areas of the skin and secure them with a bandage or cloth so that the tomatoes do not fall off.
3. Leave it on until you start to feel a slight tingling. Time varies from person to person, so it is impossible to say exactly how many minutes, but usually several tens of minutes.
4. If it happens to start burning, take the tomatoes off and rinse the area with cold water.
5. If possible, repeat the procedure several times a day, usually 3 to 5 times.
What results to expect
If everything goes according to plan, you should get rid of varicose veins within two weeks.
For some it may be sooner, for others later. It also depends a lot on the stage your condition is at.
For lighter cases it will be faster, in more severe ones it will require a longer time.
How this recipe works
Green tomatoes contain substances that have an effect similar to acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), i.e. they thin the blood and allow it to flow more easily through the veins.
They also contain substances that constrict the vessels and improve their elasticity, so the veins stop twisting and forming the nodules typical of varicose veins.
Further recommendations for treating varicose veins
