    Hi

    Does anyone have any information on fasting and LOW blood pressure? My wife is trying to loose weight and has considered trying fasting as I have successfully lost weight this way. However, she has naturally very low blood pressure and has therefore been advised not to try it (by her gym). I can’t find any info on this as most info relates to fasting lowering high blood pressure. Can anyone help?

    Many thanks
    James

    Hi James, my daughter has low blood pressure and has done fine on the plan. you wife would need to be sure she stays hydrated and monitor her B/P but should be ok. might not need to exercise on a fast day unless she monitors things closely. congratulations on your successful 5:2 journey.
