Can patients with hypertension take broken-cell-wall Ganoderma spore powder?
In general, whether hypertensive patients can take broken-cell wall Ganoderma spore powder depends on individual circumstances—it may be permissible for some, but not for others. Specific analyses are as follows:
1. Can take
Broken-cell wall Ganoderma spore powder is a type of traditional Chinese medicine, primarily known for nourishing blood and enhancing immune function. Additionally, it may help improve heart function. It is not strictly contraindicated in hypertension. If a hypertensive patient does not have other conditions that could be affected by broken-cell wall Ganoderma spore powder, moderate consumption may be acceptable.
2. Cannot take
If a hypertensive patient has an allergic constitution or is experiencing external pathogenic factors with fever, taking broken-cell wall Ganoderma spore powder may worsen symptoms and pose health risks; therefore, it should be avoided.
Patients before and after surgery, as well as pregnant women, should also avoid consuming broken-cell wall Ganoderma spore powder. Additionally, it should not be taken with heavy metal-containing substances, and should not be mixed with boiling water. Patients who experience discomfort should seek medical attention promptly and receive standardized treatment under a doctor’s guidance to promote recovery.
