Outpatient blood pressure is really high, reaching 174/ 106mmHg. Electrocardiogram showed left ventricular hypertrophy and high blood lipid. Low density lipoprotein cholesterol LDL-C was 5.8 mmol/L.
This diagnosis is basically clear, that is, hypertension grade 2, hypertensive heart disease and hyperlipidemia.
But after listening to it, Lao Li asked me, can eating Lycium barbarum, making black tea and hawthorn instead of taking medicine control blood pressure and reduce blood fat, and can adding Sanqi cure heart disease?
Say that finish, I took out a box of health care products from my bag. When I saw it, it was still a health drink tea. Lao Li said that he just bought it two days ago, and the salesperson said that this health care product has a very good effect. Many elderly people come to buy them, and they are often out of stock. Diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, myocardial infarction and stroke can all be controlled, and mild to moderate hypertension can be cured in several courses without taking medicine. # Health science qualification # # Those things about chronic diseases #
It turns out that Lao Li recently inquired about many ways to treat hypertension. Many people advise not to take medicine, so as not to damage the kidneys and liver. Many people suggest using medlar+hawthorn+notoginseng+salvia miltiorrhiza to make tea to treat hypertension and hyperlipidemia.
This idea is actually very common in clinic. Once the blood pressure is found to be elevated, the first thought of many patients is: Can I not take medicine? Can you take folk prescription to control blood pressure? Can you use diet to lower blood pressure?
Three-point poison, of course. People don't want to take medicine. This is human nature, but we should analyze the pros and cons of everything.
Many people don't know the harm of hypertension. If hypertension is not well controlled, vascular diseases may occur after a period of time, leading to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, stroke and so on.
Therefore, the treatment of hypertension is very important. If you can develop a good lifestyle at ordinary times, you can actually get twice the result with half the effort in controlling blood pressure, such as not smoking and drinking less, eating more fruits and vegetables, exercising reasonably and eating a low-salt and low-fat diet, which can all lower blood pressure.
However, if we can get into the habit of eating more fruits and vegetables, we can also lower our blood pressure within a certain range. For patients with mild hypertension without complications for the first time, we usually suggest adjusting lifestyle to lower blood pressure first. This is actually the same truth.
If you don't develop good living habits, it is not enough to make tea with medlar and hawthorn to lower blood pressure.
Generally speaking, we think that blood pressure greater than 140/90mmHg is hypertension. Of course, there are many subdivision methods, and secondary hypertension should be excluded.
However, for patients with moderate or above hypertension with systolic blood pressure 1.60 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure 1.00 mmHg, the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is already relatively high. We suggest starting drug therapy directly, because with such high blood pressure, it is not easy to drop to our desired target value through non-drug therapy alone.
I think the answer is obvious. Lycium barbarum or hawthorn (if necessary)+reasonable diet with low salt and fat+proper exercise+smoking cessation and alcohol restriction+good mentality+adequate sleep+tea cultivation, and good blood pressure. Of course, if the blood pressure is too high, it is necessary to add reasonable medication, and the blood pressure at this time is the best.
Lao Li's condition is that blood pressure and blood lipid are relatively high, and hypertensive heart disease has appeared. It is not enough to make tea simply by keeping healthy. At this time, drug adjustment should be increased according to the specific condition. If you want to add Chinese medicine to the treatment, it is recommended to consult Chinese medicine for adjustment.
