Why Your Legs and Ankles Are Swollen & W...

DR. MINDY PELZ
About this episode

Dr. Mindy explores three foods that can help reduce swelling in your legs and ankles, a concern for many of you dealing with discomfort and inconvenience. The three recommended foods—wild salmon, dark chocolate, and egg yolks—are rich in essential nutrients like vitamins B6, magnesium, and vitamin D that improve circulation, support lymphatic drainage, and help manage fluid retention. By incorporating these foods into your diet, along with mindful eating and fasting practices, you can take control of your health and alleviate these uncomfortable symptoms. Remember: 'You can control the destiny of your health.'
