Dear Anon, I would be concern not just with your eating habits but what are you doing to replace your minerals that protect your heart from heavy work outs?
Have you even been diagnosed with "Postural hypotension"? This condition is a drop in blood pressure (hypotension) due to a change in body position (posture) when a person moves to a more vertical position, from sitting to standing or from lying down to sitting or standing. This condition is more common among older people but it can also happen to younger individuals whose bodies are not getting the necessary nutrients.
What you are experiencing during the change in position is a temporary reduction in blood flow and therefore a shortage of oxygen to the brain. This leads to lightheadedness and, sometimes, a "black out" episode, a loss of consciousness. The ringing in your ears may be also a way your body is telling you that you are pushing too hard or you are lacking nutrients (fuel) to keep going.
If indeed what you are experiencing is postural hypotension, I suggest you exercise caution and slow the process of changing positions from lying to sitting to standing and consult a doctor as soon as possible to make sure it is not something more serious. Make sure you are replacing minerals after your workouts too.
