Patient's question:
I started experiencing symptoms of high blood pressure again after gradually getting younger. Over the past two years, I have been taking care of my health, and my children bought me some Dendrobium candidum to eat. I would like to ask the doctor if it's okay to eat Dendrobium candidum with high blood pressure.Doctor's answer:
It is okay to consume Dendrobium officinale (iron orchid) if you have high blood pressure. Dendrobium has the function of protecting the five internal organs and six Fu organs, which can moderately expand blood vessels, significantly stabilize the body's metabolism, and reduce the body's immune function. For high blood pressure, it is mainly important to avoid excessive intake of certain substances and maintain a healthy lifestyle, including abstaining from alcohol and engaging in appropriate physical exercise. These measures are beneficial for controlling high blood pressure.
