Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling weak and lacking energy, with poor appetite. After drinking a lot of green tea in the afternoon, I started feeling nauseous and vomiting. I went to a pharmacy for a blood pressure test, and the pharmacist said I have low blood pressure, suggesting I drink saltwater and pay attention to my diet. I'd like to ask what foods are good for low blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
Hypotension can cause dizziness, headaches, and fatigue. Anemia cannot be treated with green tea. Green tea is very cooling and can also lower blood pressure. Anemia requires enhanced nutrition and qi support. It also needs to take oral qi-tonifying medications under the guidance of a doctor. Rest should be paid attention to, and overtime should be avoided. People with low blood pressure should pay attention to eating more qi-enhancing foods, such as black sesame seeds and longan fruit. They should also eat more eggs, red dates, peanuts, red beans, pork liver, pork blood, carrots, chicken, and black fungus. It is possible to take collagen for a period of time and pay attention to enhancing physical exercise. Drinking coffee, nana, and strong tea moderately can help reduce the excitability of the central nervous system, stabilize the function of the vasomotor center, and help enhance blood pressure and stabilize clinical symptoms.
