It's getting hot here in the Philippines and I think I'm sick. Last month I had two times feeling light headed and like I am floating when I move. I also felt hot and think I'm going to faint. When I got home I checked my blood pressure and it was 140/90 an I am only 25 years old. I am not that fat and my normal blood pressure is 110-120/ 80. I did not yet consulted any doctors regarding this because I don't have that much time because of my work. Can you suggest any natural medicines for blood pressure maintenance and health maintenance?

I'm sorry you haven't been feeling well. I don't know of any medicines like that. I hope you feel better really soon.

Increase your consumption of fruits and vegetables, low fat dairy products, lean products, fish Eliminate food that are high in saturated fats

@rairaianne14 maybe instead of pork you can switch to chicken. It is less fatty

Hi @Nawsheen that's what I really lack.Fruits and vegetables. Been always eating pork due to the food near my office. They have lots of pork dishes rather than fish and veggies.

@Nawsheen yeah maybe chicken but not the skin. It caused me sometime to have high blood pressure too!

This article might be of help, ingredients are easy to find because it was written by a Filipino. Also have your pressure checked after you have rested, activities like walking and climbing the stairs might give a false positive result, it is still best to consult you doctor when you get the time., get well

It's season of headache, flu, colds and other respiratory diseases again. You better consume lots of calamansi juice.

I think it is getting hotter there. I had experienced working there before. You need to hydrate yourself.

@TheInvisibleMan I'm quite okay as of the moment. No signs of high BP. Just lack of sleep it's very hot here in the Philippines even during the evening.
