Prevention means NOT getting something to begin with. What GP quoted said that to PREVENT getting varicose veins, you should not sit with your legs crossed. And, yes, I think the Cleveland Clinic thinks everyone should elevate their feet 30 min a day, exercise for an hour a day, eat 4 fruits, 5 veggies and 3 servings of meat, not smoke, etc etc.
