Can Apple Cider Vinegar Cause Fluctuation In Blood Pressure?
I ve started taking 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in 1/2 cup of water 2 times daily to help with acid re-flux. Today is day 4 and I ve noticed that I m light headed. I took my blood pressure and it was 78/50 with a heart rate of 89. Normal blood pressure for me is 120/80 with a heart rate of 74. I take 100mg/day of losarten to treat my high blood pressure. Should I back off the vineger or the losarten?

If your blood pressure is dropping to that extent, in my opinion you should hold off losartan for a while and monitor your blood pressure.
