hi,
Though it may not be related, vegetable juices may reduce the blood pressure by regularizing your metabolism, reducing blood sodium levels and increasing potassium levels, which is healthy.
if it is not causing any symptoms, you need not worry. if there are symptoms like fatigue or giddiness, you need to be liberal in increasing salt intake.
all the best.
