When the blood pressure drops below the individual’s normal level, it can cause as much distress as when heightened. Apart from being directly related to organic problems, there is often an association with debility and exhaustion.

The herbal approach to such a problem combines help for physical and nervous exhaustion with remedies that tone up the circulatory system and return the blood pressure to a normal level. Depending on the cause, different herbs are appropriate. Where stress and nervous exhaustion are involved, the nervine tonics should be used, most important in this case being Oats, otherwise either Kola or Skullcap, depending on the individual need. Bitters such as Gentian and Wormwood should be considered to help activate the digestive process with a strengthening effect. A basic mixture:

Broom	1 part
Hawthorn Berries	1 part
Kola	1 part

This tea can be drunk three times a day.

When there is any degree of debility present it is valuable to take Ginseng regularly.
