My DH has low blood pressure and when he gets exhausted he uses an extract of licorice root that gets him back on track quickly. I get it online. It is called Licorice Solid Extract and is made by Nutricology. The bottle lasts a long time in the fridge as he doesn't have to use it alot and only one 1/4 tsp at most at one time. As he has "cleaned up" his diet and worked to reduce/eliminate sugar and grains and coffee and pop his BP seems to be rising to normal. He also was getting ocular migraines when his BP was low and he hasn't had one for ages. Isn't it fun putting the health puzzle together! So many pieces and so many foods. But at our age, good health is worth it as long as you can maintain the joy. So for him, the joy seems to be in the search and the empowerment that comes with self choosing, and the outcome of feeling better.
