Don’t Cross Your Legs – It’s Unhealthy




When the muscles of the legs and knees are not nourished and don’t have good circulation, then the extremities stagnate, which can lead to varicose veins or broken capabilities and other problems. Look at the ankles of people age 40 and over who have the habit of crossing their legs. Note the broken veins and capabilities. When the muscles and feet do not get their full supply of blood, the feet become weak and poor circulation sets in. Cold feet usually torment the leg crosser.

A well-known heart specialist was asked, “When do most people have a heart attack?” He answered, “At a time they are sitting quietly with one leg crossed over the other.” When you sit, plant both feet squarely on the floor or a box if needed because crossing your legs puts an unnecessary burden on your heart!

People who are habitual leg crosser's have more acid crystals stored in the feet than those who never cross their legs. Crossing the legs is one of the worst postural habits of man. It throws the hips, spine and head off balance and it’s the most common cause of chronic backaches, headaches and varicose veins.

Poor posture can bring an unbearable pain across your upper back and fatigue in your drooping shoulders. It can also cause soreness that shoots from the back of your throbbing head to the base of your neck and downward to mingle with the stiffness in your lower back.

Poor posture can cause weakness in your hips and loins, a numb feeling at your tail bone and often, a shooting pain down your legs. Bad posture can develop aches and pains all over the body. Be kind to your body and please don’t cross your legs. You can break this habit.
