I've always had low blood pressure, and I shouldn't probably because I smoke. My family actually has a history of high blood pressure. My doc thinks I'm taking care of my health . . . but little does he know.

My b/f (from Georgia) came here with really high blood pressure, and he was concerned about the amount of salt and marg I used when I cooked. He was starting to feel yucky for a while, so we tested his blood pressure several times. He was TOO LOW, for the first time in his life. Must be something in the water (or the amount of fresh fruit and veggies I made cook. ) Boxed and canned foods seem really bad for raising blood pressure too.

My blood pressure gets so low for periods, I start to feel dizzy. I just eat a bowl of pretzels, and it seems to do the trick.
