Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of health product technology, specifically to a health tea used to lower blood pressure. Background Technology

[0002] Hypertension is a disease characterized by persistently high blood pressure, which can cause stroke, heart disease, aneurysm, kidney failure and other diseases. Hypertension is a systemic disease characterized by elevated arterial pressure, which may be accompanied by functional or organic changes in organs such as the heart, blood vessels, brain and kidneys. It is divided into primary hypertension (hereditary hypertension) and secondary hypertension (symptomatic hypertension, caused by other diseases).

[0003] Hypertension is closely related to diet. Long-term dietary habits, such as excessive intake of lipids and cholesterol, coupled with a lack of adequate exercise to promote their metabolism, lead to a gradual increase in these substances in the body. This accumulation in the blood can clog capillaries. Over time, these substances can combine with free mineral ions in the body to form blood clots. These clots tend to accumulate and calcify at bends or bottlenecks in blood vessels. As the number of clots increases, the diameter of the blood vessels narrows. To maintain sufficient blood supply, the heart increases blood pressure, resulting in hypertension. If blood pressure is too high, it can cause blood vessels to rupture, leading to hemorrhagic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. If the blockage results in insufficient blood supply, it is called ischemic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease.

[0004] The traditional treatment for hypertension is oral antihypertensive medication. This method has strict regulations regarding the timing and dosage of medication; it cannot be stopped arbitrarily, nor can medication be used without authorization, otherwise the condition may worsen or even endanger life. Moreover, "all medicines have side effects," and long-term use can lead to significant side effects, especially for people with weak gastrointestinal function, such as decreased appetite and nausea. Therefore, treating hypertension with medication is both troublesome and unsafe. Furthermore, Western medicine cannot cure hypertension, but can only control it. Class 6 or 7 antihypertensive drugs mainly control blood pressure through two pathways: reducing blood volume and dilating blood vessels, reducing the lateral pressure of blood on the blood vessel walls from both internal and external perspectives to achieve the goal of lowering blood pressure. Western medicines for lowering blood pressure include diuretics, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin-amine receptor antagonists, alpha-blockers, and direct vasodilators. These drugs have the following drawbacks: 1. They can weaken blood vessels and trigger cerebral hemorrhage; 2. They only treat the symptoms and not the root cause, accelerating vascular obstruction; 3. Vasodilators have serious side effects due to aging; 4. Long-term use of Western medicines requires them to be metabolized by the liver and kidneys, which can severely damage the liver and kidneys and cause various diseases. Moreover, Western medicine treatment for hypertension requires very strict dietary restrictions.

[0005] Currently, commonly used antihypertensive drugs in China mainly fall into three categories: calcium channel blockers (dihydropyridines), ACE inhibitors (pril-type), and angiotensin-converting enzyme-II inhibitors (sartan-type). Among Western medicines, statins are the dominant lipid-lowering drugs. In recent years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) cardiovascular disease treatments have gradually become best-selling products in the domestic market. Compared with Western medicine preparations, TCM preparations have the characteristics of "multi-target and multi-effect." However, some TCM treatments on the market only treat the symptoms and not the root cause, some use expensive ingredients, many products have insignificant antihypertensive effects, and the effect after lowering blood pressure is unstable, easily leading to rebound hypertension.

[0006] Tea is a traditional Chinese beverage. Tea leaves contain catechins, cholesterol, caffeine, inositol, folic acid, pantothenic acid, and other components that can improve human health, earning it the reputation of being one of the "world's three major beverages." While ordinary tea has certain health benefits and can meet the health needs of the general population, it is insufficient for people suffering from varying degrees of hypertension or hyperlipidemia to meet their needs for regulating their bodies and treating illnesses.

[0007] Some teas on the market that help lower blood pressure add Chinese herbs to ordinary tea leaves. However, ordinary tea leaves contain a large amount of tannic acid, which easily forms insoluble precipitates with alkaloids. Many Chinese herbs have alkaloids as their active ingredient. Other herbs such as Corydalis Rhizome, Cirsium japonicum, Cirsium setosum, Achyranthes bidentata, and Datura stramonium also have alkaloids as their main active ingredient. Therefore, adding Chinese herbs to ordinary tea leaves to treat hypertension is not very effective because of the potential for drug detoxification. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defects of the above-mentioned technology and provide a health tea for lowering blood pressure.

[0009] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by the present invention is a health tea for lowering blood pressure: made from the following raw materials in the indicated weight ratios: 30-80 parts of Gynostemma pentaphyllum, 275-335 parts of black tea, 18-46 parts of Salvia miltiorrhiza, 30-80 parts of Eucommia ulmoides, 18-46 parts of Gastrodia elata, 18-46 parts of Epimedium brevicornu, and 5-14 parts of pollen.

[0010] As an improvement, it is made from the following ingredients in the indicated weight ratios: 50 parts Gynostemma pentaphyllum, 300 parts black tea, 30 parts Salvia miltiorrhiza, 50 parts Eucommia ulmoides, 30 parts Gastrodia elata, 30 parts Epimedium brevicornu, and 10 parts pollen.

[0011] The pharmacological properties of the various Chinese medicinal herbs used are as follows:

[0012] Gynostemma pentaphyllum: bitter and slightly sweet in taste, cold in nature; enters the lung, spleen, and kidney meridians; has the effects of sweet tonification and bitter purgation, coldness clearing and detoxification, strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi, eliminating phlegm and relieving cough, clearing heat and detoxifying; used for qi deficiency with heat, phlegm-heat cough and asthma, heat-toxin sores and carbuncles, and tumors;

[0013] Dark tea: bitter and sweet in taste, neutral in nature; it has the effects of regulating blood sugar, regulating blood pressure, and promoting digestion. Dark tea contains tea polysaccharide complexes, which are complex and chemically unstable mixtures and are important components for blood sugar control. The theanine unique to dark tea can inhibit the rise in blood pressure by activating dopaminergic neurons, and the caffeine and catechins in dark tea can relax blood vessel walls and dilate blood vessels. At the same time, the caffeine, vitamins, amino acids, phospholipids, etc. contained in dark tea help the human body digest and regulate fat metabolism. The stimulating effect of caffeine can increase the secretion of gastric juice, thereby increasing appetite and aiding digestion. The abundant tea polysaccharides in dark tea have the effect of lowering blood lipids and reducing the activity of peroxides in the blood. Dark tea not only contains abundant antioxidants such as catechins, tea pigments, flavonoids, vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin D, and carotene, but also contains a large number of trace elements with antioxidant effects such as zinc, manganese, copper, and selenium. The catechins, theaflavins, theanine, and tea polysaccharides in dark tea, especially the complex flavonoids which are abundant, all have the function of scavenging free radicals, and thus have an antioxidant effect.

[0014] Salvia miltiorrhiza: bitter in taste and slightly cold in nature; enters the heart and liver meridians; has the effects of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, regulating menstruation and relieving pain, clearing the heart and relieving irritability, cooling blood and eliminating carbuncles; used for chest pain, abdominal pain, abdominal masses, hot arthralgia, insomnia, irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea and amenorrhea, sores and swelling.

[0015] Eucommia ulmoides: sweet in taste and warm in nature; enters the liver and kidney meridians; has the effects of tonifying the liver and kidneys, strengthening tendons and bones, and calming the fetus; used for liver and kidney deficiency, soreness and weakness of the waist and knees, weakness of tendons and bones, dizziness, vertigo, bleeding during pregnancy, and threatened abortion.

[0016] Gastrodia elata: sweet in taste and neutral in nature; enters the liver meridian; has the effects of calming wind and stopping spasms, suppressing liver yang, dispelling wind and unblocking collaterals; used for infantile convulsions, epileptic convulsions, tetanus, headache and dizziness, hemiplegia, numbness of limbs, and rheumatic pain.

[0017] Epimedium: It is pungent and sweet in taste, and warm in nature; it enters the liver and kidney meridians; Epimedium has the effects of tonifying bone yang, strengthening bones, and dispelling wind and dampness; it is used for kidney yang deficiency, impotence and seminal emission, weakness of muscles and bones, rheumatic pain, numbness and contracture.

[0018] The advantages of this invention compared to existing technologies are as follows: Through scientific formulation, Epimedium has a cardiotonic effect on the cardiovascular system, resists myocardial ischemia, and lowers blood pressure. Furthermore, combined with Gynostemma pentaphyllum in a blood sugar-lowering regimen, it also regulates blood pressure. Simultaneously, the multiple marker components contained in Gastrodia elata, Salvia miltiorrhiza, and Eucommia ulmoides contribute to this combination, improving sleep and synergistically enhancing the blood pressure-lowering effect, making it more pronounced. Moreover, all the Chinese herbs used in this formula are natural, safe, effective, and without toxic side effects, exhibiting excellent therapeutic efficacy. Detailed Implementation
