  • Bruising??

    Has anyone developed this? Maybe I'm not taking enough vitamins? I take a multi vitamin 1 time a day. I read somewhere-don't remember where - I've read so much lately that when you start losing weight and become active all of the sudden that your (I won't explain right but hopefully you will understand) capillaries - I think - don't realize you have lost the weight & the blood keeps pumping as much as they normally would & that's where the bruising comes from - it also said this will go away in time - if I remember correctly. I have small bruises on my legs (several) but have just started walking lately. What do you think? Have you all read this or had something similar?

    Thanks for the help :nod

    I bruise very easy now. Sometimes I look like I have been in a fight and the other person won. I find if I forget my vitamins I bruise more. I don't know if it has anything to do with it. I never bruised before.

      For bruising increase your intake of vitamin C. Its a water soluable (it will go right thru you if your body doesnt need it) vitamin so take a good amount to get rid of the bruising and then take abou 1000mg per day to prevent.
