As mentioned, this supplement contains one active ingredient, Calendula Succus. Though, there are several filler ingredients that include Distilled Water and Grain Alcohol.

Calendula Succus has a long history as a medicinal herb. Traditionally, this herb was most often used to enhance wound healing and soothe skin that was irritated or suffered from a rash of some sort. This extract comes from a flower that closely resembles Marigolds, and may often be confused for this other flower. In fact, Calendula Succus is at times referred to as “Pot Marigold.” Today, this flower extract is most often used in topical creams or ointments for lacerations, abrasions and skin infections; less commonly, it is used internally to heal inflamed and infected mucous membranes, says an online source.

In addition, this plant is purported to benefit individuals who suffer from these afflictions: bruises, eczema, fungal infections, varicose veins, earaches, duodenal ulcers, cramps, gastrointestinal disorders, balancing menstrual cycle, fever and vaginal dryness due to menopause.

When it comes to the issue of varicose veins, Calendula Succus is said to aid with circulation, and there are some who claim this herb may effectively address this vein issue. Though, we would like to note that there are no current studies or research that this ingredient may be successful in reducing or eliminating varicose veins. For that purpose, we believe individuals may do better with a product that contains the patented Diosmin 95®, which has been proven in multiple clinical trials to effectively and quickly diminish both varicose and spider veins.

At this time, there is no Herb Pharm Calendula Succus website, but the manufacturer posts a website that people may visit. However, due to the many products the company sells and rather poor organization, we find it is hard to navigate through this site to find desired information. In addition, we feel that this site may be further enhanced if the company took the time to post testimonials and cited research to demonstrate that their products have been tested and reviewed for both safety and effectiveness.

• Product may be found at reduced prices
• Active ingredient is said to have various health benefits

• Does not contain ingredients proven to reduce varicose veins
• Testimonials are not displayed online at time of writing
• No product website as of review
• Does not appear to come with a money-back guarantee

In the end, Calendula Succus has been used as a medicinal herb for some time now. Though, many of its well-known benefits are through the use of topical application, and this product comes in the form of oral drops. Nonetheless, this product may be beneficial in various ways, but due to current research, we do not feel that this formula may be a viable method to tackle the issue of varicose veins. However, those interested in this Herb Pharm product may find it at reduced prices, but at full-price, a four ounce bottle of Calendula Succus costs just above $40.

We feel that individuals would likely find more success with a product that contains a patented, proven ingredient. One that is backed by many positive customer testimonials may be especially attractive.
