Hello everyone, I am Dr. Li of Chinese medicine.
Today we talk about high blood pressure. Everyone will experience that blood pressure is easy to rise in winter, and the doctor will instruct you to insist on taking medicine. Some people feel good after taking medicine, but there are also people who have lowered their blood pressure, but they are still uncomfortable, and the body is not relaxed because of normal blood pressure.
One fundamental reason is that antihypertensive drugs lower blood pressure, but it does not remove the cause of high blood pressure. The root cause of high blood pressure is actually organ ischemia. The reason why our body has the problem of rising blood pressure is that the body is saving itself. Because blood pressure is necessary to maintain our lives, the reason why the heart, brain, kidneys and other organs have blood flow to ensure supply is because of the pressure and push of blood pressure. If the blood pressure is too low and the push is insufficient, these organs will become dysfunctional due to ischemia, or even stop.
Therefore, when doctors treat critically ill patients, whether blood pressure is normal or not is a key indicator of life. Doctors also attach great importance to this indicator. Everyone knows that winter is the high incidence of stroke, which is caused by high blood pressure in the cold weather. In fact, strokes in the summer are also high, but the nature of strokes in summer is completely different from strokes in winter. Winter is often too high blood pressure, the blood vessels broke through the stroke caused by cerebral hemorrhage, and in the summer the weather is hot, blood vessels dilate, if there is a problem of low blood pressure, and in the heat of the day sweating more timely did not replenish water in time, the total amount of blood decreased. Blood pressure will be low, too low blood pressure can not guarantee the blood supply to the brain is easy to cause blood clots, which can also cause stroke. And this type of stroke is called hypoperfusion stroke. The culprit is too low blood pressure, which reduces the perfusion of blood vessels, resulting in stroke.
Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the use of antihypertensive drugs in the summer, just to avoid low blood pressure. This suggests that there is a reason for our blood pressure rise, and it is also necessary. Once the blood supply is insufficient and an organ is is bloodied, the body will report to the brain. The most timely and direct way for the brain to ensure blood supply is to quickly raise blood pressure. If we blindly regard hypertension as pathological and blindly reduce blood pressure, although blood pressure has dropped, the problem of ischemia has not been solved, or even more serious. Naturally, it will feel more uncomfortable.
If you want to be able to lower blood pressure at the same time, you can be comfortable and be able to alleviate symptoms. Then it is necessary to remove the factors that cause high blood pressure, or the root cause of high blood pressure, that is, to fundamentally solve the problem of ischemia of organs. So how can you make your organs no longer bechemic and fundamentally eliminate high blood pressure?
The first is to control the basic diseases of blood lipids, blood sugar, and diabetes, and at the same time quit smoking and limit alcohol, relax the mood, because of arteriosclerosis caused by hyperlipidemia and high blood sugar or smoking and drinking, the damage to blood vessels and mental factors are tense, the heart rate is accelerated, and the blood vessels are constricted. If the blood supply does not pass, the blood pressure will rise. If you solve these problems, the blood supply can be sufficient, and the body naturally does not need to pressurize for the sake of blood supply. At this time, even if you do not take antihypertensive drugs, your blood pressure will gradually return to normal.
To put it another way, doctors will tell patients to take antihypertensive drugs for life. It is because you have a lifetime of difficulty in improving your wrong lifestyle, or your blood sugar and lipid problems, which cannot be normal in the short term. Therefore, taking antihypertensive drugs is actually a helpless move, in order to reduce the consequences of high blood pressure. And the truth is also, as long as you these problems that lead to insufficient blood supply to the organs are not removed. As long as you stop the antihypertensive drugs, the blood pressure will rise again, and even if you don't stop the drugs, the blood pressure will be suppressed by the raw drugs, and the body will be uncomfortable. And that's not the fault of antihypertensive drugs. The fault is that your body always has the root cause of poor blood supply to organs.
Then in addition to the lipid reduction and sugar reduction we said earlier, quit smoking and alcohol, relax your mood. In response to this problem of high blood pressure, there are also some Chinese medicines that can help you, such as Sanqi powder, which is an effect that can both replenish qi and resemble ginseng. This drug that ensures that the heart muscle pumps blood vigorously and fills the blood vessels, and at the same time he is also a drug that has the effect of activating blood and dissolving stasis, which can reduce the problems caused by hardening of the arteries. So as long as you don't have dry stool or fire, you can use three or seven powder two to three grams a day to take, stick to it is also a good way to help maintain blood pressure stability. Remember that two to three grams of three or seven powders can be. Because this medicine is very dry, especially in the dry season of winter, if you take it is easy to catch fire.
Well, we'll share it here today.
