A Vogel Venaforce Extra - As an alternative to conventional treatments which are frequently invasive and painful, herbal treatments such as Venaforce tablets have the distinction of being positively pleasant in comparison while preventing varicose veins symptoms from worsening as well as alleviating the immediate symptoms. The Horse Chestnut seed, that shiny brown conker so beloved by children, is anti-inflammatory, astringent (tones blood vessels) and anti-oedema (excess of fluid in the tissues). This herb has many constituents which work together giving its clinical action in peripheral venous disorders. These include saponins, flavonoids, tannins and coumarins.
