Vegetables such as celery and black fungus can help lower high blood pressure. Celery has a unique aroma that can promote the secretion of bodily fluids, improve digestion, help reduce blood pressure, and relieve discomfort symptoms such as edema and dizziness. Black fungus has effects including promoting blood circulation, stopping bleeding, nourishing yin, and enriching blood. It also contains polysaccharides that help clear and unclog blood vessels, as well as lower blood pressure and blood lipids.
