Organic Hibiscus Tea 20 Teabags (Pack of 6, Total 120 Teabags)

Some of this review that I write will have been copied over from another Hibiscus tea product, I have found them to be equally palatable and, more importantly for me, seem to have the same positive effects on my blood pressure....I was a little dubious at first regarding any possible benefit in using this as an aid to controlling blood pressure, 58 years old male with moderately high BP, which seems to be my norm and not necessarily down to dietary and other lifestyle choice.I am currently taking 3.75mg of Bisoprolol daily as a help to reduce my BP and also as an aid for an elevated heart rate, that is probably down to anxiety.I do use a Omron BP unit which has bluetooth capability and thus record my BP readings over an Android app for monitoring.For those who have BP issues you will be aware of how much your BP can vary, made worse for me with "white coat syndrome" when it comes to measuring it.However with everything else being as constant as life can make it I am reasonably sure that drinking three or so cups of this tea a day has helped to lower both of my reading by around 10% or so. For me that was more important on the diastolic readings.whilst drinking this tea might well have anti inflammatory benefits as well as BP lowering qualities, I am reasonably impressed with what I have seen so far after around two months use of Hibiscus tea bags.The Tea bags seem to be made without the use of any bleaching agent on the bags as well.It produces a lovely red tea which tastes very very nice indeed, sometimes drinking it with Manuka honey as it can be a little tart.I am impressed with these tea bags, providing a lovely cup of nice tasting tea and also they do seem to have had a positive effect on my BP.I also use Clipper organic Chamomile tea in-between cups of this type............. This actual product......I have uploaded several photos to show the bags and the colour effect that they have when left to stand in a cup of 90c water. Not sure why one or two appear sideways when they were all taken in portrait mode.The boxes that they arrive in are cellophane sealed and wrapped. The box opens cleanly and will close shut again. Each of the bags, see photos, are individually sealed. They also come with a string and holder to dangle over your cup. The paper used for the bags appears to be the non bleached type, not pure white type.The bags themselves seem sturdy enough and non have burst in the cup so far. The contents isn't as large or full of "bits" etc than others I have used but that doesn't seem to effect their beneficial effects".Leaving the bag in the cup for a full five minutes the very dark and deep aubergine colour in the water is very apparent. The taste is tart and consistent with others that I have used.I am now off Bisoprolol, and its associated side effects which were quite bad, and I am, for the very first time, most hopeful that these can continue to be a good contribution to my ability to manage my own blood pressure. It is early days as yet and I am still having issues with the side effects of no longer taking my beta blockers.If anyone is considering doing the same it is a MUST that you do this with the help, advice and support of your GP. Please do not do this on your own. We are all individuals and react quite differently to both medication and products such as these and need the expertise of a GP before attempting to make any changes.Hope that his review is helpful and the very best wishes on the results that you see from using it.

Like the taste. Not too bitter. I would recommend. Definitely buy again

It's a really good organic hibiscus tea, with a unique and pleasant flavour.

I love this tea. The write ups say that it helps with blood pressure, etc, if you drink 3 cups of this a day maximum. However, I am on a diet and trying to maintain a 1,000-1,200 calorie diet per day as well as exercise so it is to be expected that I lose weight anyway so I can't confirm that it works for that but it doesn't appear to harm it. As for blood pressure, as mentioned I have been losing weight and exercising so I expect to see my blood pressure to go down gradually. The top reading has gradually gone down but the lower diastolic reading is fairly stable around the 90 mark which is high. The hibiscus tea is supposed to help the expansion of the arteries etc which should help to reduce the lower diastolic reading but it hasn't done so. I have faithfully drunk 3 cups of tea, spaced throughout the day for weeks now and no difference noted. I cannot see any harm in it though and I like it a lot as a drink. Little calories,if any so happy to continue with it. Perhaps it is helping as a support part of my diet. No evidence for or against though. People these days tend to want a miracle cure and there is no such thing. Hard work is the only option with everything in life. Lovely tea but don't rely on a cup of this to do the all of the work you need to do for yourself.

Hibiscus tea is pleasent to drink.I find it reduces my blood pressure by a small amount

These are great and full of health benefits. Hibiscus tea is known for bringing down blood pressure and I could see this work when I take a morning and evening cup of tea every day and measure my blood pressure. Apart from that it is also rich in anti oxidants.It has a tarty taste and so I drink it with a couple of sugar cubes. I would heartily recommend this product and the tea.

No effect whatsoever on blood pressure - so diluted as well

Bought to help.with the hubby's blood pressure and they work a treat, unbelievable power, works great hot like a cup of tea without milk of course, but I also make up a jug of cold juice with them.Mother nature at its best
