High Blood Pressure - How Green Tea Helps

A short article highlighting the benefits of lowering blood pressure through consumption of Green Teas.

In traditional Chinese medicine, high blood pressure is often considered to be a problem of circulation of energy (qi) in the body. Poor diet and emotional imbalance are just two of the factors that can lead to this condition. A combination of acupuncture, teas and herbs is often recommended to balance energy flow.

Secondary high blood pressure is often due to exhaustion of energy reserves. This is known to the Chinese as kidney yin deficiency. The goal of treatment in this case is to build up and restore energy and a suitable diet is really important in aiding people who have high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Avoiding too much fat and greasy food and doing physical exercises are the basic essentials, however, Chinese green tea and puerh teas are also very useful to these patients. The tea can help digestion and metabolism in the body and help to reduce the fat in the body.

In the University of Beijing a recent study showed that people who drink tea as opposed to people who drink coffee are 38% less likely to have lasting high blood pressure problems. The lowering of your pressure will allow you more Qi in your body and you will feel more energized as a result. Daily and gradual exercise is also highly recommended. The drinking of natural teas, especially Puerhr, along with a proper diet will assist with the reduction of fat and clinically tested levels of blood pressure and cholesterol.
