Pulse Slow / Below 65

When the pulse is below 65 the following possible cause of the problem should be considered:

1. A need for Vitamin B1
2. Hypercalcemia (excess calcium in the blood)
3. Adrenal hypofunction
4. Parasympathetic dominance
5. Endocrine hypofunction
6. and / or food / environmental sensitivites

It is important to remember that a person who exercises regularly may have a pulse below 65. This is physiologically normal.
