Low Blood Pressure: When is it significant?
Many people worry about high blood pressure, but low blood pressure—also called hypotension—can be a problem, too. For some adults, it causes no trouble at all. For others, it brings dizziness, fainting, and even dangerous drops in blood flow. The key is knowing when low blood pressure is normal and when it needs attention.

A funny thing happens when we reach our 60s. Surveys show happiness often forms a “U-shaped curve.” Many people dip in mood during their 30s and 40s, then start climbing back up in their 50s.
