Suggest Treatment For Low Blood Pressure
My blood pressure is 101 over 66 and my pulse is 68. I am a male, age 51 , non-smoker, weight is 155 lbs. and height is 5'5". I'm a healthy eater, and don't eat alot of meat or greasy foods. Mostly chicken, fresh fish and veggies. Very little salt added if any. I walk on a regular basis. Sometimes feeling tired and out of energy by end of day. I know I have low blood pressure and wanted to know if pressure should increase and if so, how does one increase blood pressure? does more exercise help? please advise

Although blood pressure is on lower side, no treatment is needed. This is probably normal pressure for you. however increasing fluid and salt intake will help.
is there a history of chest pain or cardiac Illness, if no need to worry. if yes then should seek cardiologist.
