Customer question:

Is low blood pressure dangerous? Anonymous customer's question

Pharmacist's answer:

Low blood pressure, or hypotension, is usually not dangerous unless it causes specific symptoms or complications. However, if it drops too low or if severe symptoms occur, it can cause significant problems in some cases.

In rare cases, low blood pressure can cause confusion, severe dizziness, or fainting. This can be dangerous if it occurs while driving or performing activities that require concentration.

Low blood pressure is usually associated with a healthy lifestyle and can occur in physically fit people with a low body mass index. However, it can also occur in people with poorer health who have cardiovascular disease, dehydration, anemia, hormonal disorders, or health problems related to the nervous system.

Talk to your doctor if you have frequent or more severe symptoms of low blood pressure. The doctor must determine the cause and prescribe appropriate treatment or measures to control the symptoms.

How can we naturally help ourselves with high blood pressure?

Lifestyle changes and natural herbal or nutritional supplements are natural ways to manage high blood pressure. Change your diet to include more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, and fish, which contain nutrients like potassium, magnesium, and omega-3 fatty acids. Reduce your sodium (salt) intake and eat foods high in saturated fat and simple sugars.

Physical activity can also help lower blood pressure and improve cardiovascular health. Do at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity daily, such as walking, running, swimming, or cycling, several times a week. Stress can also contribute to high blood pressure. Try incorporating relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, yoga, or progressive muscle relaxation.

Excessive consumption of alcohol and caffeine can cause an increase in blood pressure. Try to limit your intake of these substances or avoid them altogether. Being overweight is also associated with high blood pressure. Try to achieve and maintain a healthy weight through a balanced diet and regular exercise. Consult your doctor before starting any new treatment program or supplement, especially if you have any medical conditions or are taking medication.
