He Shou Wu, Hawthorn Berry & Mulberry Tea

Why people make this tea

Urban stress, a meat-heavy diet, and little exercise form a familiar recipe for elevated blood pressure, high cholesterol, and stiff arteries. Nourilo is clear: if you have been diagnosed with hypertension, medication comes first — no food-therapy tea can replace that. But as a supportive daily habit alongside treatment, this tea has been used in Chinese households for generations. Hawthorn berries in particular have attracted real scientific interest for their effects on lipid levels and circulation. The combination with he shou wu and mulberries adds a liver-kidney nourishing dimension that traditional Chinese medicine associates with calming “liver yang rising” — a pattern often described in TCM as an underlying contributor to high blood pressure.
