Traditional Folk Remedies for Hypotension (Low blood pressure)

Low blood pressure or hypotension can be defined as fall in blood pressure below normal especially, in the arteries of the systemic circulation. Generally, hypotension is considered as systolic blood pressure less than 90 mm Hg and diastolic less than 60 mm Hg. The main causes of low blood pressure are dehydration, malnutrition, anemia, pregnancy, emotional instability and stressful lifestyle. 

The major symptoms of hypotension are lethargy, weakness, fatigue and dizziness. These may presumably be a result of decreased perfusion of blood to the heart, brain and other vital organs, and hence, reduced supply of oxygen and nutrients to the organs. 

In its severe form, hypotension can cause neurological and endocrine disorders and also lead to a life threatening condition called Shock. Hypotension is treatable but it's important to find out what's causing the condition so that it can be properly treated and cured.


Since time immemorial, various traditional remedies have been in practice in curing common health ailments such as low blood pressure. Find out more about such age old, natural and effective folk remedies that have no side effects on the body system.
