Patient's question:
Is tea therapy effective for high blood pressure? How exactly does it work? I have a history of high blood pressure for over a decade, and I've been taking medication daily to control it. Sometimes, I also use folk methods like soaking black beans in vinegar. Recently, I heard about tea therapy methods and wanted to ask if they are worth trying and how to do it.Doctor's answer:
Hello, indeed there are folk methods for tea therapy, but the vinegar-soaked black beans you mentioned can stabilize blood circulation but do not offer significant benefits for lowering blood pressure. Some tea therapies can reduce blood lipids and can be selectively used based on individual circumstances, but it's important to note that the efficacy of folk therapies varies from person to person. It is still necessary to use long-term, standardized antihypertensive medications. Wishing you health.
