What kind of tea do hypertensive patients drink?
This is a good question and a very scientific way to ask questions. Nowadays, hypertension is mostly controlled by western medicine, but Chinese medicine also has treatments and many drugs for hypertension.

Many traditional Chinese medicines have the function of lowering blood pressure or assisting in lowering blood pressure or improving hypertension symptoms. For example, Chinese medicine believes that lowering blood pressure should not only dredge blood vessels and lower blood pressure, but also repair damaged internal organs. Let's take a look at several Chinese patent medicines that can lower blood pressure or improve hypertension symptoms. Here are a few examples:

Hawthorn Jiangya Capsule contains ingredients such as Hawthorn, Chrysanthemum, Alisma orientale (salt), Prunella vulgaris, Cirsium japonicum and Semen Cassiae (fried), and can be used for treating headache, dizziness, tinnitus, amnesia, soreness of waist and knees, palpitation and insomnia and hypertension.

Apocynum venetum hypotensive tablet contains Apocynum venetum, Prunellae Spica, Uncaria rhynchophylla, Alisma orientalis, mother of pearl, Achyranthes bidentata, Crataegus pinnatifida and Chrysanthemum, and can be used for treating hyperactivity of liver yang, blood stasis blocking collaterals, dizziness, headache, dysphoria and hypertension.

It is not difficult to find that several kinds of traditional Chinese medicines commonly used in antihypertensive drugs, such as apocynum venetum, Prunella vulgaris, cassia seed, chrysanthemum indicum, hawthorn, Uncaria rhynchophylla, etc., are not all used for making tea.

Briefly introduce several traditional Chinese medicines and their effects;

Chrysanthemum indicum has the functions of clearing away heat and toxic materials and lowering blood pressure. It is usually used with Prunella vulgaris and cassia seed to treat hypertension.

Prunellae Spica can clear away liver-fire and dissipate stagnation, so it is often used to treat hypertension, accompanied by headache, dizziness, tinnitus, irritability and insomnia. Can be used in combination with Semen Cassiae, Scutellariae Radix, Flos Chrysanthemi, etc.

Apocynum venetum can calm the liver and calm the wind, and can treat dizziness, head swelling, insomnia and other symptoms caused by hypertension.

Uncaria rhynchophylla can also calm the liver and calm the wind, and can be used to treat dizziness, headache and red eyes caused by hyperactivity of liver yang. It is often used in combination with cassia seed.

But! Any medicine, including traditional Chinese medicine, regardless of the dosage, is a hooligan who stresses efficacy and toxicity. Some of these drugs have cumulative toxic effects and are not recommended for long-term use, such as Prunella vulgaris, Apocynum venetum and Uncaria rhynchophylla, which may have side effects.

Hypertension is often closely related to liver and kidney damage, yin and yang deficiency and phlegm-dampness internal resistance, so it is said that hypertension is in blood vessels, but its root is in internal organs. Therefore, it is good for hypertension to eat some foods that enter the liver and kidney regularly. If you make tea for a long time, wild chrysanthemum can make tea with medlar or with cassia seed.

The above only talks about the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine that can make tea for hypertensive patients to stabilize blood pressure. In fact, patients with hypertension need to pay attention to many problems, such as complications of hypertension, atherosclerosis, diabetes, nephropathy, eye diseases and so on. Therefore, looking for Chinese patent medicines with corresponding efficacy can generally be matched with tea drinks to play a certain health care role.
