Inflated veins (was Re: Quick Salt Question)

Annie: CRON will greatly lower your blood pressure. It's one of the more

classic markers. So just stick with your CRON program and give it 6 months

or so.

Sounds like varicose veins? We haven't heard anything pro or con.

I guess I'm just explaining myself poorly. See why I can't

research this? ;-)

You know how, when you are young, you can look down at your

hands and hardly see the veins? But in older people, I guess

maybe starting in the mid-20s to mid-30s, when you look at their

hands, the veins really stand out? That's what I mean. It doesn't

just happen in the hands, but it is most noticeable there. It's not

varicose veins, or high blood pressure. It's almost like the blood

vessel walls just get weaker so they swell more without added

pressure. It is definitely age related, but I don't even know the

proper term for it.

Anyone have any thoughts?

I won't try to explain again after this. I don't mean to be wasting

space here or anything.

Thanks,

Annie
