When it comes to normalizing blood pressure, most people think that the problems are related to hypertension (high blood pressure). But hypotension (low blood pressure) also reduces the quality of life.
Nutritionist Nadezhda Chernyshova told how to normalize low blood pressure. She emphasized that there are no foods that can increase blood pressure.
