You are obese and often have low blood pressure, there can be a number of causes and factors that affect this condition.

Obesity can affect the autonomic nervous system, leading to insufficient response of the body when it needs to regulate blood pressure. In addition, obese people can experience increased activity of the digestive system after eating, causing a decrease in blood pressure to the brain, leading to low blood pressure. This condition can also be caused by reduced blood tolerance when fat tissue loses water and electrolytes due to obesity.

If you are overweight, losing weight can help improve your blood pressure and reduce your risk of low blood pressure. Follow a balanced diet and exercise regularly. Make sure you maintain your body's water and electrolyte balance by drinking enough water every day, as low blood pressure can be the result of dehydration.

Adding a little salt to your diet can help increase blood pressure and improve low blood pressure. At the same time, to improve, you should limit eating a lot of food at one time, instead, eat many small meals during the day to reduce the increased activity of the digestive system after meals.

If low blood pressure causes unwanted symptoms or serious problems, see your doctor to get tested and determine the specific cause. Your doctor can recommend appropriate treatment based on your individual health condition.
