More tips for increasing blood pressure
Besides dietary changes, the following tips can help you increase your blood pressure.
Wear compression socks
Compression socks are often used to relieve pain and swelling caused by varicose veins in the legs. These elastic socks discourage blood from pooling in the veins of your lower legs by shifting the blood elsewhere. If you have low blood pressure, you may benefit from using these stockings [9]. You may use elastic abdominal binders instead of compression stockings if you feel more comfortable with the binders.
Sit with your legs crossed
Crossing your legs can increase your blood pressure. Doctors discourage hypertensive people from doing this often. You should consider crossing your legs [10] more often when you sit if you have low blood pressure.
