We always hear doctors discuss high blood pressure also known as Hypertension. No one discussed Hypotension or Low blood pressure., You might get up from a sitting position or from lying in bed and feel dizzy when you arise . It is not only dizziness that you may suffer from but from severe fatigue. Your blood pressure might by very low as 80-90 systolic or top number /50-60 diastolic or the botton number.
Centuries ago,m physicians gave patients wiuth these symptoms wine infused with Rosemary to increase circulation. In Germany you can buy a ointment infused with Rosemary to be rubbed on the chest for low blood pressure. There are many herbs that can be used to increase or normalize your blood pressure. These herbs can vary from ginger to hawthrone to gimseng. I have used all three over the years. I particularly like the adaptogen, Siberian ginseng to normalize blood poressure.
Many patients use iodized salt. While this can be a good quick “ fix” - you must be careful Iodized salt can affect other organ systems as the thyroid.
In either case I would discuss this problem with your health care practitioner. Perhaps you are taking too mnany blood pressure medications
Until tomorrow…
