Hypertension, known scientifically as hypertension, is a chronic medical condition.

Hypertension is dangerous and is associated with an increased risk of fatal conditions, including heart attack and stroke, stroke, aneurysm, and kidney failure.

Fortunately, there are many effective natural remedies for high blood pressure, including exercise, diet and herbal remedies.

This article focuses on one herbal remedy for naturally lowering blood pressure that is safe, inexpensive, and widely available – Hibiscus tea.

What is Hibiscus tea?

Hibiscus tea is a beverage made from the husks of Rochelle’s herbaceous hibiscus saparifa.

This drink is popular throughout the world, especially in the Caribbean and Africa (it is called kargate in North Africa). Herb tea is light, fragrant, and has a deep purple-red color.

Just like any herbal tea, you can easily brew Hibiscus tea by immersing the dried herbs in water.

Naturally lower blood pressure with Hibiscus tea

Studies on Hibiscus tea used to lower blood pressure

Hibiscus has been studied more thoroughly than many herbs and is effective in lowering blood pressure.

The extract of the plant and the herb tea has been studied directly in recent randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials.

The mechanism of action also begins to be understood: a plant with light colored flowers is thought to act as an ACE inhibitor, a well-known and well-studied class of hypotensive (low blood pressure) drugs.

Perhaps most importantly, the amount of hibiscus tea used in a study suggests that people who consume moderate amounts of herbal tea daily may benefit from this treatment.

Compare Drugs

Various medications have been used to lower blood pressure, only a few of which have been compared with a Hibiscus.

In one study, Hibiscus was found to be comparable to an old medication, captopril (brand name Caboten).

It has been found to have a weaker effect than a new and potent drug, lisinopril (also known as Prinville, Tenzopril, Zestril or Hypril).

Safety and side effects

For thousands of years, Hibiscus tea has been widely consumed as a global drink. It is an ingredient in many herbal teas and is generally considered a safe beverage ingredient.

Also, clinical studies have found no strong side effects – in pharmacologically speaking, a herbaceous tolerance is outstanding.

This safety profile is in stark contrast to synthetic ACE inhibitors, which have many common undesirable side effects, and some that are potentially dangerous, leading to many contraindications to these drug treatments.

One of the primary complaints about herbal tea is: the drink is very sour. While some complain that the drink is too acidic, others prefer the sour taste.

Hibiscus is one of the most popular ingredients in herbal tea blends, and is commonly used to give a sour flavor and deep red color

Other Benefits and Medicare Advantages

One of the advantages of natural remedies is that natural herbal cures and often have additional benefits than their modern pharmacological counterparts.

In the case of hazelnuts, these benefits have not been fully investigated, but there is some evidence that a hazelnut liver may have an effect on the liver, lower cholesterol levels, and have an antipyretic effect.

Buying Hibiscus Tea

Hibiscus tea is widely available around the world; While clean drinks are less available in the United States. Supermarkets store many herbal teas, which are one of the main ingredients of the herb.
