I once made the mistake of listening to the whole salt is bad for you hype (maybe true for some people, I guess)...
I didn't do anything special, just cut out chips and didn't add any additional table salt to any food for a few weeks.
Got out of bed for school one morning and fell over. Evrything just went black for a few seconds...
I ate a big bag of Doritos on the way to school and soon felt just fine.
LOW blood pressure runs in my family. It can sometimes be as much of a problem as high BP - just the other direction. Every time my sister or I go to a doctor for any reason and they check BP, they immediatly start asking if we feel OK and would we like to lay down?
My resting pulse is sometimes as low as 46 and it's not like I work out much or anything (sometimes I wonder what I could get it down to if I did work at it...). It's probably a big part of why my air consumption is low compared to most of the divers I know though.
