can chinese tea lower blood pressure
Drinking tea cannot lower blood pressure. Although some herbal teas can help lower blood pressure, they cannot be used as a treatment method to lower blood pressure.
For example, brewing tea such as Gynostemma pentaphyllum, Cassia seed, Chrysanthemum, etc. can help lower blood pressure. But antihypertensive treatment should still be standardized by taking oral antihypertensive drugs.
In addition, excessive tea, such as black tea, dark tea, etc., not only cannot lower blood pressure, but may also increase high blood pressure. It contains tea polyphenols as excitatory substances, which may cause an increase in blood pressure.
If patients with hypertension have a tea drinking habit, they should mainly drink light tea leaves, avoid drinking strong tea, coffee, and alcohol, which may cause an increase in blood pressure and make it difficult for hypertensive patients to control their condition.

Does green tea increase blood pressure
Drinking green tea in moderation generally does not induce an increase in blood pressure. However, if one drinks too much concentrated green tea for a long time, it may trigger an increase in blood pressure and may also cause symptoms such as a faster heartbeat.
Green tea is a common type of tea, and moderate consumption generally does not have any impact on physical health. However, due to the presence of catecholamines, tea polyphenols and other substances in green tea, if consumed in large quantities for a long time or steeped too strongly, it can cause sympathetic nervous system excitation in the human body, resulting in symptoms of increased heart rate and possibly triggering blood pressure rise. It is recommended to develop good habits in daily life and try not to make tea too strong when drinking tea. If a patient has hypertension, try not to drink green tea as it may affect the normal blood pressure and cause an increase in blood pressure.
