Blood pressure
Blood pressure is the pressure of the blood on the walls of the blood vessels as it circulates. Blood pressure is measured by “systolic” pressure over “diastolic” pressure.
Systolic pressure is the pressure on the blood vessel wall during the heartbeat when the lower chambers of the heart are pumping blood forward.
Diastolic pressure is the pressure on the blood vessel wall when the lower chambers of the heart are at rest and filling with blood.
According to the American Heart Association, normal resting blood pressure in an adult is no more than 120 millimeters (mm) of mercury (Hg) systolic and no more than 80 mm for diastolic. This is abbreviated to 120/80 mmHg.
People with very low blood pressure may experience poor circulation and other related symptoms. However, having a lower blood pressure measurement is not usually a cause for concern in people with a healthy cardiovascular system.

Blood health
The blood carries oxygen and nutrients and removes waste and does these jobs best when it is healthy.
Healthy blood has the right levels of normal red blood cells, which carry oxygen, white blood cells, and platelets. These components are all made in the bone marrow.

Heart health
The heart is the muscle responsible for pumping a person’s blood around their body. The stronger and healthier a person’s heart is, the better its circulation.

Blood vessel health
Having healthy veins and arteries makes it easier for blood to pass through them. If a person’s lipid or fat or their cholesterol levels are too high or low, the blood vessels can become injured and blocked.
Other causes
Poor circulation may be a symptom of other underlying health conditions. These include:
obesity
diabetes mellitus
heart conditions
