Feet are the foundations of keeping your heart healthy, staying positive, and improving your blood glucose levels…really?
Keeping your heart healthy, staying positive, and managing your glucose levels are very important. But moving more to keep your heart healthy is a lot easier when your feet are in tip top condition, and it also helps improve your blood glucose levels by improving how your body processes the glucose in your blood. Not only that, but good circulation also helps keep the skin on your feet healthy, carrying the nutrients your skin needs for healing, and to stay soft and supple enough to protect your feet. Imagine a favourite pair of leather shoes or handbag, which look neglected and crack if left untreated. Getting out and about can also help your mental health and keep you in a positive mood, which is great on its own, but lowering stress can also help keep blood sugar levels in check. So foot health really is at the foundation of your whole health and wellbeing.
So what does that mean for me?
Keeping your feet healthy isn’t just good for your heart health and managing your blood glucose levels. Being able to go about your everyday life without worry also makes it easier for you to independently stay in touch with the people, places and activities you want or need to do, worry free.
