Ganoderma lucidum has been proved effective on lowering blood pressure. We all know that hypertensive nephropathy is caused by long term poorly controlled blood pressure, therefore the first step is to bring high blood pressure under control so as to prevent further renal damages. Mere intake of anti-hypertension medicines has been proved ineffective in the long run and patients have to take large amount of various medicines.
Ganoderma lucidum can help lower blood pressure and the effects are better if taken together with conventional anti-hypertension medicines. It can increase the density and diameter of the capillary loop as well as erythrocyte flow velocity, reduce the blood viscosity and improve microcirculation. Besides the ganoderma lucidum can regulate the blood lipid which is good for the prevention and treatment of hypertension and its complications.
The mechanism of ganoderma lucidum in lowering blood pressure:
1. The polysaccharides in ganoderma lucidum can effectively dissolve thrombus and clear the intravascular deposition and toxins so as to recover the vascular flexibility, prevent vascular rupture and purify the blood.
2. It can activate the myocardial cells, repair and regenerate the damaged and necrotic cells so as to reduce the pressure to the heart, inhibit proliferation of arterial smooth muscle cells and prevent the formation of atherosclerosis.
3. The active ingredients in ganoderma lucidum can regulate the liver and kidneys so as to have quick relieve of dizziness, headache, heart palpitation, chest distress, etc.
4. It can extend the time of coagulation of the platelet and inhibit the formation of thrombus so as to promote the regeneration of blood capillaries and recover self-regulation ability of blood circulation.
5. It can help block vascular sclerosis and increase the blood flow in the heart and brain so as to recover the nerval function of regulating blood pressure.
6. It can help reduce the tension of the capillaries, arteriole and small arteries and regulate the blood circulation so as to improve oxygen supply to the tissues and enhance myocardial viability and prevent myocardial infarction.
7. It has the functions of repairing damaged tissues and organs due to long term intake of other medicines and can effectively protect heart, brain and kidneys. It can also regulate the immune system and enhance the immunity.
8. It can decrease the blood lipid and improve microcirculation in the brain and heart and eliminate the complications caused by hypertension.
Thought it takes relatively longer time to take effects compared with western anti-hypertension medicine, it has very few side effects and more durable curative effects. What is more, it can not only treat diseases, but also can recuperate the body and build up physical strength.
