disturbance in balance. It also may be used to describe feelings of dizziness,
faintness, unsteadiness, and lightheadedness. What can you do to manage vertigo

1. Stop smoking. If you are a smoker, try your best to reduce or quit.
Smoking may lead to the hardening of the arteries.

3. Eat a proper diet. Vertigo can be directly or indirectly caused by
atherosclerosis and high blood pressure, so you can modify your diet properly.
Get rid of junk foods and switch to eating more fish, fresh fruits, vegetables
and whole grains. Dietary changes can also reduce your risk for cardiovascular
conditions and stroke. You can consult your doctor or talk with our online
