[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is essential that you take salt with some water if you feel like that.
I had to. I suspect you have low blood pressure?

I do have low blood pressure.  Something like Nuun (which has 15 calories) will, I assume, break my fast? (There seem to be disagreements about this when I google it).  I guess I could just drink nuun with lunch.  I just didn’t think about needing it since I’m not doing endurance training!

I don't think so. I don't think that is enough calories to break the fast. Unless you do it every half an hour!
I used to take table salt in my hand, a tiny bit, and take some water afterward. You see when people feel dizzy of weak, I used to be told take sugar, which might also be a valid point, but I learned with DS, who was a junior athlete and had this issue to buy Sodium Chloride tablets, he hated Gatorade and similar, and just have him take him. His pediatrician told us to do so. It works like a charm.
Curious though, how low is your blood pressure? I don't meet too many people with low blood pressure? I once had 60/40, but at Wegman's machine. My mom wanted to take me to ER on the spot.
Normally I stand around 90/60, 80/50. [b]Saw a cardiologist for a stress test and he said that is awesome[/b]. I am 50. This is just me being curious about it.[/quote]

Until you get a massive stomach bug.  Then you are pretty much unable to get off the bathroom floor until it passes.[/quote]
