Herbal Formulas Traditionally used For
High Blood Pressure
Du Zhong Pian (Cortex
Eucommiae Tablets)
Du Zhong Pian is for what would be considered Deficient Kidney Yang types. Symptoms may include High Blood Pressure with a pale face, you feel cold and often complain of lower back pain, weakness, edema may be present. However this can work for many people.
Many people
have weaned themselves (in about two weeks) completely off of extremely
dangerous B. P. meds while taking this all herbal formula!
The Herbs:
There are only four herbs in this classic formula. (I have made this as a tea many times for people but it gets expensive with the raw herbs and a bit of a pain to boil)
The first herb is Du Zhong. This is
classified as a kidney yang tonic but it also tones kidney yin and is slightly
diuretic as well as used for frequent urination by toning the kidneys. It is a
famous blood pressure lowering tree bark. (Euccommia ulmoides)
Then we have Gou Teng. This is classified as
a Liver Sedative. It dilates the capillaries and other blood vessels (While
strengthening them) helping to lower B. P.
Next we have the Chinese Skullcap Root, Huang Qin. This cools heat excess in the heart and is sedative to the nerves.
It is also very healthy to the structure of the nerves and is useful in
destroying a broad range of germs.
Lastly we have Xia Ku Cao or Chinese Prunella
Vulgaris Flower Spikes. (Much larger than our American Prunella Vulgaris) This
is a heat clearing plant that can reduce heat in the liver and bring down blood
pressure very effectively. This is also helpful in stopping
jaundice.
The Chinese Patent, "Du Zhong Pian" contains enough pills for about 6-7 days in each bottle. Two bottles of formula should be enough to see how good it can work for you.

Wow! That's quite a list of stuff for a two herb combo.
Naturopathic Doctors and Clinical Herbalists like myself have always used Hawthorn Berries against these problems. However I started combining Siberian Ginseng with Hawthorn at my clinic as a base for High Blood Pressure and found a quick (about I week) dramatic drop in blood pressure in about 80% of my patients. (The Siberian Ginseng seems to accelerate the effect)
Stroke victims should definitely be taking this combo for long term!
