Normal blood pressure is in the range of 120/80 (mmHg). Blood pressure can fall below 90/60 (mmHg), which is alarming for the person’s health. Low blood pressure is also known as Hypotension.
Just like high blood pressure, low blood pressure is dangerous and can take a severe toll on a person’s health. Low blood pressure can cause dizziness and the person may also faint. This happens because of the reduction in blood circulation and it does not reach the brain appropriately.
In severe cases, low blood pressure can be life-threatening. It is important to find out the cause of your low blood pressure so that it can be treated.
Blood pressure can drop suddenly and might be accompanied by symptoms such as:
Dizziness or lightheadedness
Fainting
Blurred or fading vision
Nausea
Fatigue
Lack of concentration
Low pulse rate
Increased sweating
Home remedies to cure low blood pressure:
Low blood pressure can be tackled by having tea or coffee. The caffeine in tea and coffee increases the blood pressure to a normal level. Whenever you feel uneasy or dizzy, you can have tea or coffee.
By chewing Tulsi leaves, blood pressure can be increased to a normal level. Magnesium, potassium and eugenol present in Tulsi, help maintain normal blood pressure. Instead of chewing Tulsi leaves, you can also boil them in your tea and drink them.
