Hey all, I took much a longer break from writing than I meant to. I stopped writing the middle of December due to moving to a new state plus the holidays with family but my plan was to start writing again the first week of January. However, I got really sick New Year's Eve, like so sick I actually thought I was maybe dying lol. My anxiety was absolutely through the roof, but having pretty extreme anxiety helps me write pretty good angst, so you all benefit from my suffering! :D

Anyway, I wasn't able to write this past month because I'm only just now starting to feel somewhat normal again. I still have some lingering issues and I'm not completely convinced I'm not somehow dying, but I am setting a goal to write at least 15k words during February in addition to uploading the last chapter of Ghost on the Couch some time this week. Don't write me off yet! Still alive for now...

What Is Low Blood Pressure ?

What is blood pressure? Blood pressure is the force of your blood pushing against the walls of your arteries. The higher your blood pressure is, the harder your heart has to work to pump your blood around your body. And the lower your blood pressure is, the easier it is for your heart to do its job

Which kind of tea, green tea or black tea, is better for lowering blood pressure?

Lowering blood pressure can be quite challenging, and many people with hypertension can relate to this. Every millimeter of mercury (mmHg) reduction in blood pressure is a long-term gift obtained through strict medication adherence, a healthy diet, and moderate exercise.

However, scientists have discovered a group of people who can easily lower their blood pressure with a simple and small habit. After just 12 weeks, they achieved significant blood pressure reduction.

They found that long-term tea consumption reduced the average systolic and diastolic blood pressure by 1.8 mmHg and 1.4 mmHg, respectively.

So, which type of tea is best for lowering blood pressure?

Part 1: Although there are many types of tea in the market, such as green tea, black tea, oolong tea, white tea, yellow tea, and chrysanthemum tea, most studies on the relationship between tea consumption and blood pressure focus on green tea and black tea.

Researchers from the Fuwai Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences published a meta-analysis in the British Journal of Nutrition, which included 25 relevant studies and 1,476 participants. They found that people who drank green tea had a significant reduction in systolic blood pressure by 2.1 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 1.7 mmHg. In contrast, those who drank black tea had a reduction of 1.4 mmHg in systolic blood pressure and 1.1 mmHg in diastolic blood pressure. Therefore, long-term consumption of green tea seems to be more effective in controlling blood pressure.

Another meta-analysis by foreign scholars also found that green tea had a more significant blood pressure-lowering effect than black tea.

Frequent consumption is key

Although many studies suggest that tea consumption can help lower blood pressure, this does not mean that people with hypertension who do not have a tea-drinking habit can immediately lower their blood pressure by drinking a cup of tea. After all, tea is not medicine.

Researchers from the Fuwai Hospital found that acute tea intake had no effect on systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Blood pressure reduction only became significant after drinking tea for more than 12 weeks, with systolic blood pressure decreasing by 2.6 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure decreasing by 2.2 mmHg.

In addition to "long-term," some scholars suggest that the frequency of tea consumption is also related to blood pressure reduction. Hodgson et al. evaluated the effect of long-term regular tea consumption on blood pressure in older women. A total of 218 women over 70 years old were included in the study. The results showed that tea intake was related to a significant reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure. An increase of 250 ml/day (one cup) of tea intake was associated with a 2.2 mmHg reduction in systolic blood pressure and a 0.9 mmHg reduction in diastolic blood pressure.

This suggests that frequent tea consumption may have a beneficial effect on blood pressure in older women.

Furthermore, a study on blood pressure and tea consumption in the elderly population in Jiangsu, China, involving 4,579 participants, found a significant negative correlation between tea consumption frequency and systolic and diastolic blood pressure after adjusting for age, sex, lifestyle, and other factors.

In conclusion, although many studies have shown that tea consumption can help lower blood pressure, it is important not to make the tea too strong.
