Exercise is good: Overall good blood circulation is best supported by making healthy lifestyle and behavioral choices. Eat well and sensibly, watch your weight, avoid tobacco which narrows blood vessels, know your family and personal risk for developing atherosclerosis of your blood vessels. Exercise, including cardiovascular, will help your heart and blood vessels stay healthy.
