How to increase blood pressure at home?

The rate of blood pressure largely depends on age, and this factor must be taken into account. So, for example, in an adult healthy person its value should be 120/80, in children under twelve years of age - 100/60, adolescence is characterized by a pressure of 110/70, for people who have stepped over fifty years of age, the norm is 130/80, and for old people - 140/90. If the pressure has been low for several years, but the person feels well, there is no need to worry. In this option, it is only necessary to exclude the presence of pathological abnormalities in the body.

Causes of arterial hypotension

Hypotension in most cases is manifested by constant dizziness, rapid fatigue and weakness. Lowering blood pressure is often observed in adolescents and young people, which affects their health, mood, and ability to work. There are several determining factors that influence such changes. These are disorders in the work of the heart (loss of strength by the heart muscle lowers pressure, for example, during a heart attack), a decrease in vascular tone and other factors that indirectly affect the state of blood vessels and heart muscles.

The most common reasons affecting a decrease in pressure are abrupt changes in meteorological conditions (hot summer weather, thunderstorms, surges in atmospheric pressure, magnetic storms) that worsen the well-being of many people and are manifested by joint pain, shortness of breath, and hypotension. The reasons that lower blood pressure include depression, physical and mental overload, prolonged stress, taking hypotonic medications and antispasmodics, a lack of trace elements and an imbalanced balance of hormones in the body.

Increasing pressure at home

Here are 5 tips to help you gradually normalize low blood pressure:

• Sleep 9-11 hours (or extra hours of sleep during the day) and a reasonable alternation of mental and physical labor - that's where to start. The correct daily routine is above all!
• You need to start the day by doing morning exercises, which warms up the body and promotes better blood circulation through the vessels. At the same time, the tissues of the body are saturated with oxygen, and the human performance increases. Aerobic exercises (jogging, aerobics) and exercises that can increase vascular tone (tonic) are very useful for hypotonics.
• After that, you must definitely go to the bathroom and take a morning contrast shower. It is taken no more than 7 minutes, constantly alternating between cold and hot water. The procedure contributes to the narrowing and expansion of the lumen of blood vessels, and, therefore, raises their tone.
• A full breakfast is a must! For example, oatmeal with fruit or sandwiches with cheese and butter, sweet tea or coffee.
• Particular attention should be paid to a balanced diet, it is the main factor affecting well-being in the presence of hypotension. Include liver, caviar, cheese and cottage cheese, carrots, pomegranate juice, and horseradish in your diet. In the diet, it is necessary to observe limited salt intake, use spicy additives and spices in sufficient quantities.

If hypotension is not based on any disease, then it is possible to use:

• Tinctures of echinacea, or ginseng, as well as lemongrass (not lemon!), Leuzea, but in this case, a doctor's consultation is necessary.
• Infusion of immortelle (Tones up blood vessels, has a tonic effect. Eliminates insomnia)
• Tincture of pink radiola (stimulates the central nervous system, has an adaptogenic effect, increases blood pressure)
• Infusion of prickly tartar (Increases blood pressure)
• Coffee-honey mixture (mix 50 g of ground coffee with 0.5 l of honey and juice of one lemon. Store in the refrigerator 1 tsp each 2 hours after a meal)

All of these methods, taken together and regularly used, can increase blood pressure.

Rapid increase in blood pressure at home

Many people underestimate the severity of the low blood pressure problem, although this is a direct signal of a disorder in the body that ruins a person's life. The whole difficulty lies in the inability to normalize pressure once and for all, since changes in blood vessels are usually caused by a genetic factor. Today there are many drugs that act to increase blood pressure.

But if they are not in the house or you are a supporter of home remedies, then there are a lot of methods for increasing pressure at home:

• The easiest and most affordable way is to dissolve a pinch of salt on your tongue, you don't need to drink it with water.
• The following method significantly increases the pressure and retains the multi-day effect: pour 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon in powder form with one glass of boiling water, let it brew and cool, add a few tablespoons of honey. Take in the morning on an empty stomach and in the evening two hours before bedtime with very low blood pressure.
• And if you need to raise it only a couple of points, then it's good to eat a slice of bread, which is smeared with honey and sprinkled with cinnamon.

It is believed that drinking green tea increases blood pressure, since it contains a lot of caffeine, just like coffee, but this is not the case! Green tea, especially with lemon, lowers blood pressure! This drink is contraindicated for hypotonic patients.

A common, but short-term, way is a cup of coffee. Herbal infusions increase pressure, which can be called natural energy and tonic agents, these include infusions of ginseng, leuzea, lemongrass, eleutherococcus. They are taken 30 drops per 200 ml of warm water before meals. In very hot weather, with strong sweating, a drop in blood pressure occurs due to the loss of water by the body. In this case, a glass of ordinary water can be a sufficient remedy, which will restore the body's hydrobalance.
