Poor circulation (Always cold)

I have always been cold my whole life even in the hot summer months. My feet and fingers go numb and are always cold but I don't entirely know what causes it and what can help it. I am in great health with no heart problems, blood pressure low 102/65 which I know has some effect on it. I see a naturopath and she gives me something in my vitamin injection to help, but other than that we don't know?

Any ideas of the cuases or treatment?

Thank-you for both of your inputs. I have had my thyroid checked and it is normal 0.8. my cholesterol is as the doctor put it "smoother than a babies bottom", my blood pressure is 98/60 and am very fit, make all my own foods (no processed foods) and I get regular vitamin injection done by my naturopath. I have tons of healthy teas like cammomile, hawthorne etc but none have helped. I also do love cayenne pepper and eat it in mass doses, but doesn't make a difference. I have not tried ginko biloba as I was told because of my brain injury that it was not a good idea. So thank-you for the web-sites as that was kind but I am still a little stuck as the only problem with my heart is a heart murmur which I am told is benine. I have been cold like this since I was a child and even my naturopath is a little stumped. Any other help or ideas would be awesome?

You might want to get your thyroid tested.  Feeling cold is a symptom of hypothyroidism.  Good luck!

I have been on a large amounts of supplements and this approach helped me with my poor circulation and being cold frequently.
You should not medicate yorself , you should find a good Orthomolecular Specialist in your area and go for consultation. If you don't have one near you go to a good Naturopathic doctor.
Good luck,Hugs,Sunes.
