Treatment of Hypertension by Using Natural Herbs and their Mechanism of Action


, ,
Abstract

The medical term used for blood pressure is Hypertension (HTN). Hypertension is a common problem faced by most people today. The leading danger for many diseases such as CVD (cardiovascular) disorder and stroke is high blood pressure. Major diseases like CHF (congestive heart failure), renal disease and blindness can also be caused by HTN. Awareness of plant-based medication therapeutics is continuously increasing day by day. Different substitute medicaments such as a proper and balanced diet, herbs, exercise, supplements, stress and supervision help lower HBP (high blood pressure). Recent studies found that various treatments are successful in HBP, including diet, exercise, management, herbs, and supplements. Plants consist of abundant phytochemicals that have substantiated with evidence to be defensive against cardiovascular diseases. Using plant-based natural compounds as protective and anti-hypersensitive agents is an exciting strategy for exploring biotic products. Plants are rich in many secondary metabolites, such as flavonoids, alkaloids, and carotenoids, and have been found to exert antihypertensive effects in vivo. For high blood pressure, knowledge acquisition is carried out on herbal medicines every year. For HBP treatment, there are numerous herbal medicines, including Arjuna, Ginseng, Ginger and Garlic, which can be securely used to handle hypertension.
