It has been more than two weeks now I feel like sleepy even in morning. I had an impression that I left much sleep due to some programs recently.However, the program got over last Saturday and I had enough sleep even after that I feel sleepy and I felt my eyes become heavy.
Yesterday I called up my father to know about his health status (old age problems). He too complaint that he felt sleepy most of the time and he met his doctor to know what is the reason for this. The doctor said it is due to lack of Sodium and asked him to drink lemon water adding enough salt. With surprise I told him I am also feeling the same.
I know I have low BP. (low bp problem comes when sodium is less in blood). What a coincidence. I am educated much on this, lol
How about your health? Hope every one is doing good and healthy.

I do not have any health problem. I will be helping those suffering from health problems. Better you keep some glucose with you when you go out. Have some sugar water also in a bottle and keep it with you. Low B.P is very dangerous.

This is the mango season. Mangoes put me to sleep. I eat a lot of them.

@allknowing You won't make pickles? Make dry mangoes?

as summer is effecting me too much.
Then you should have lemon juice regularly to avoid such problem.

@Sreekala Fortunatell I don't have any health problem whatsoever.The only problem I have is I sleep late.Sleep remains elusive till late night.And I get up at 5 a.m.
I think you'd better visit your doctor. Get yourself examined thoroughly.

. I was searching in net about this problem, it says no special medicine for this. Only thing we have to do balance the sodium level with water.

This problem may trigger some another , better take precautions now itself. Take sodium rich foods and visit doctor if its necessary

Does this mean I got too much sodium which is why I couldn't sleep as early as I could? I didn't realize less sodium is bad either.
