Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of health-care foods, and in particular relates to a flower tea composition with blood pressure-lowering effect and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Hypertension, one of the most common chronic diseases worldwide, faces numerous challenges in its treatment. Currently, clinical practice primarily uses chemical antihypertensive medications, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) and calcium antagonists. While these medications offer clear antihypertensive effects, long-term use can lead to adverse reactions such as dry cough, electrolyte imbalances, and liver dysfunction. According to statistics, approximately 20% of patients discontinue treatment due to intolerance to medication side effects.

[0003] Traditional medicine believes that the occurrence of hypertension is related to pathological mechanisms such as "hyperactivity of liver yang," "internal obstruction of phlegm," and "imbalance of qi and blood," while modern medicine focuses on pathological mechanisms such as activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), sympathetic nerve excitation, and disturbances in sodium and potassium ion metabolism. Current clinical treatments primarily rely on Western medications, including diuretics, beta-blockers, and ACEI / ARBs. While these medications can effectively control blood pressure, long-term use can cause adverse reactions such as electrolyte imbalances, dry coughs, and hypoglycemia. Some patients also have drug tolerance issues, necessitating an urgent need for safe and effective supplemental treatment options. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the object of the present invention is to provide a flower tea composition with a blood pressure lowering effect, which has the effect of stabilizing and lowering blood pressure, and the tea soup has a rich aroma, a pure taste, and a long aftertaste.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object of the invention, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] The invention provides a scented tea composition with a blood pressure lowering effect. The scented tea composition comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 1-8 parts of white tea, 1-9 parts of roses, 1-9 parts of corn silk, 1-5 parts of gynostemma pentaphyllum, 1-5 parts of apocynum venetum tea, 1-5 parts of chrysanthemums, 1-5 parts of dandelions and 1-5 parts of Cyclocarya paliurus.

[0007] Preferably, the raw material is free of stains, insect bites, mildew, and has a pure color.

[0008] Preferably, the white tea is Moonlight White; and the chrysanthemum and rose are scented teas made by sun-drying.

[0009] The present invention also provides a scented tea powder with a blood pressure lowering effect, and the preparation method comprises: crushing and sieving the scented tea composition.

[0010] Preferably, the crushing and sieving are performed to a size of 50 to 100 meshes.

[0011] The present invention also provides a tea soup with a blood pressure lowering effect, and the preparation method comprises: brewing the above-mentioned scented tea composition or scented tea powder with hot water.

[0012] Preferably, the hot water temperature is 80-100° C., and the brewing time is 1-5 minutes.

[0013] Preferably, the brewing is performed 3 to 5 times.

[0014] Preferably, the brewing ratio of tea to water is 1g:30-200mL.

[0015] The present invention also provides the use of the scented tea composition, scented tea powder or tea soup in preparing blood pressure-lowering health-care food.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] The present invention's scented tea composition has a balanced balance of cold and warm properties: chrysanthemum and dandelion are cooling (clearing heat and purging fire), rose is warming (regulating qi and harmonizing the middle), and white tea (slightly cold) and Cyclocarya paliurus (neutral) balance the medicinal properties. This composition avoids the spleen and stomach deficiency caused by long-term consumption of single cooling herbs (such as Prunella vulgaris and Cassia seed), making it particularly suitable for middle-aged and elderly patients with hypertension and weak spleen and stomach. Furthermore, the aromatic substances of rose and the sweet taste of white tea significantly improve the bitterness of traditional blood pressure-lowering teas (such as Kuding tea and Gynostemma pentaphyllum tea), enhancing the drinking experience and increasing long-term compliance.

[0018] The raw materials of the scented tea composition of the present invention are all ingredients of medicinal and edible origin, and the multi-target synergy is achieved, and the blood pressure-lowering effect is exerted through vascular protection + metabolic regulation + neuroendocrine intervention, cardiotonic and diuretic + vasodilation, heat-clearing and liver-calming + anti-oxidation, anti-platelet and microcirculation improvement; and the composition is suitable for a wide range of people, including but not limited to patients with comprehensive syndrome, simple hypertension with edema, liver yang hyperactivity type and blood stasis type. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The invention provides a scented tea composition with a blood pressure lowering effect. The scented tea composition comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 1-8 parts of white tea, 1-9 parts of roses, 1-9 parts of corn silk, 1-5 parts of gynostemma pentaphyllum, 1-5 parts of apocynum venetum tea, 1-5 parts of chrysanthemums, 1-5 parts of dandelions and 1-5 parts of Cyclocarya paliurus.

[0020] In the present invention, for patients with hypertension, the compatibility relationship of the monarch, minister, assistant and envoy ingredients in the scented tea composition is as follows:

[0021] Chrysanthemum is used as the main medicine. Chrysanthemum is slightly cold in nature and belongs to the liver meridian. It has the effects of calming the liver and suppressing yang, clearing the liver and improving eyesight. It directly targets the common liver yang hyperactivity syndrome (dizziness, headache, red eyes) of hypertension. As an optional embodiment, chrysanthemum is 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 parts.

[0022] White tea, corn silk, Gynostemma pentaphyllum, Apocynum venetum tea, and Cyclocarya paliurus serve as auxiliary herbs, creating a synergistic effect. The tea polyphenols (EGCG) contained in this herb reduce endothelial damage through antioxidant activity, enhancing the antihypertensive effect of chrysanthemum. Theanine regulates the central nervous system and relieves stress-induced hypertension. Alkaloids and flavonoids dilate blood vessels, reducing vascular resistance and thereby reducing cardiac output pressure, ultimately lowering blood pressure. Gynostemma pentaphyllum saponins dilate blood vessels, thereby reducing vascular resistance and helping to lower blood pressure. Furthermore, by slowing heart rate and reducing cardiac tension time index, oxygen consumption is reduced, further alleviating the burden on the heart. Cyclocarya paliurus contains triterpenoid saponins and polysaccharides, which improve insulin resistance and indirectly lower blood pressure, serving as an adjunct to the treatment of hypertension combined with metabolic syndrome. Cyclocarya paliurus also acts as a guiding herb, acting as a channeling agent. It enters the spleen and kidney meridians, guiding the herb to the lower abdomen, coordinating the effects of the entire formula on the liver and kidneys. As an optional embodiment, white tea is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 parts, corn silk is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 parts, Gynostemma pentaphyllum is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 parts, Apocynum venetum tea is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 parts, and Cyclocarya paliurus is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 parts.

[0023] Dandelion and rose are used as adjuvants. Dandelion contains taraxasterol, which is diuretic and natriuretic, reduces blood volume, and has anti-inflammatory effects to relieve chronic vascular inflammation; rose harmonizes qi and has an aromatic smell (phenylethanoid glycosides) that soothes sympathetic nerve excitement, improves anxiety-related blood pressure fluctuations, and promotes blood circulation and improves microcirculation. As an optional embodiment, dandelion is 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 parts, and rose is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 parts.

[0024] As an implementation method, for those with excessive liver fire, the chrysanthemum in the flower tea composition of the present invention is used up to 5 parts, and the white tea is reduced to 3 parts to prevent the cold from damaging the stomach; for menopausal hypertension patients, the rose in the flower tea composition of the present invention is used up to 9 parts to strengthen the liver, and the Cyclocarya paliurus is increased to 5 parts to improve glucose and lipid metabolism; for patients with liver depression and qi stagnation (accompanied by depression and flank distension), the rose is used up to 9 parts; for patients with internal accumulation of damp heat (accompanied by yellow and greasy tongue coating and oliguria), the dandelion is used up to 5 parts.

[0025] In the present invention, it is preferred that the raw materials are free of stains, insect bites, mildew, and have pure color.

[0026] In the present invention, the preferred white tea is Moonlight White, and the chrysanthemum and rose are scented teas made by sun-drying. The present invention has no particular limitation on the sources of the raw materials, and all of them can be obtained from market sources.

[0027] The present invention also provides a flower tea powder with a blood pressure-lowering effect. The preparation method comprises: pulverizing and sieving the above-mentioned flower tea composition. Grinding the flower tea composition raw materials into tea powder ensures that the ingredients are evenly mixed, which not only improves the taste of the tea but also helps the ingredients dissolve and release more quickly.

[0028] In the present invention, the powder is preferably pulverized and sieved to 50 to 100 mesh, more preferably 60 to 90 mesh, and even more preferably 70 to 80 mesh.

[0029] In the present invention, ultraviolet sterilization is preferably performed after crushing to kill potential microorganisms and ensure the hygiene and safety of the product; and ultraviolet sterilization has no effect on the quality of the scented tea.

[0030] The present invention also provides a tea soup with a blood pressure lowering effect, and the preparation method comprises: brewing the above-mentioned scented tea composition or scented tea powder with hot water.

[0031] In the present invention, the hot water temperature is preferably 80-100°C, more preferably 85-95°C, and more preferably 90°C; the brewing time is preferably 1-5 minutes; the brewing is preferably performed 3-5 times; the tea-to-water ratio is preferably 1g:30-200mL, more preferably 1g:50-150mL, and more preferably 1g:100mL.

[0032] The present invention also provides the use of the aforementioned scented tea composition, scented tea powder, or tea infusion in the preparation of blood pressure-lowering health foods.
