What should people who often feel dizzy eat?

Recently, I've been experiencing frequent dizziness and lightheadedness. Could you please advise me on which foods I should prioritize to help improve this condition? (Tran Lam, Ho Chi Minh City)

Dizziness is a fairly common condition affecting many people, and can be caused by headaches, cerebral ischemia, or diseases of the inner ear, the vestibular-cochlear nerve (cranial nerve VIII), and the brain. This is because the inner ear is responsible for sending signals to the brain, via the vestibular-cochlear nerve, about the movement of the head and body relative to gravity to help maintain balance.

In terms of nutrition, people who frequently experience dizziness should eat foods that are good for overall health and especially good for cerebral blood circulation. The general principle is to ensure adequate energy, sufficient vitamins and minerals, low sodium, high potassium, high fiber, and reduced saturated fatty acids and total fat.
