As you get into your 60s and 70s, you lose fat under your skin, which then is more transparent. When you get a bruise, it appears much larger and purple and lasts for a *long time* on your hands, forearms, anywhere on your body. Vitamin K1 helped me a lot, the bruises are not as large, are lighter in color, and go away much more quickly. The condition is medically called, "senile purpura," an awful name. I found recommendations for it by googling, decided to try Vitamin K1, all I can say is it made a great difference in the way the bruises look and how quickly they go away, compared to not taking K1.

I've been using the K-1 for the treatment of spider veins and it works. I also use the Swanson cream along with it. Best taken at night for optimal performance.
