Hypertension Clinic
Can hypertension really be solved with medication alone?
Kyunghee Supreme Korean Medicine Clinic treats hypertension by addressing its root causes to help patients maintain healthy, balanced blood pressure.
Do I really have to take hypertension medicine for life?
Hypertension is not merely about lowering numbers—it’s a disorder of metabolic and vascular imbalance.
It often accompanies metabolic syndrome, along with obesity, diabetes, and insulin resistance.
So, what is the fundamental way to treat hypertension?
Hidden Mechanisms Behind Hypertension
The core mechanism lies in endothelial function and nitric oxide (NO) production.
Nitric oxide dilates blood vessels and regulates pressure; when NO levels drop, vessels constrict and blood pressure rises.
•
Excess fructose & refined carbohydrates → higher uric acid → endothelial damage
•
Insulin resistance → impaired NO synthesis → vascular dysfunction
•
High-purine intake (beer, grains) → increased uric acid → higher pressure
•
Sodium imbalance → worsened hepatic fructose metabolism → endothelial stress
Thus, hypertension is not simply a “salt problem.”
It requires coordinated management of diet, metabolism, and vascular health.
Does medication make you truly healthier?
“My blood pressure is lower now, but my body feels worse—why?”
Antihypertensive drugs lower numbers but do not solve why your pressure rose in the first place.
Limitations of long-term medication
•
Temporarily lowers blood pressure but leaves root causes unresolved
•
Over time, dosages increase and new prescriptions are added
•
Chronic use may burden the kidneys and cardiovascular system
but as a whole-body imbalance to restore.

Frequently Asked Questions about Hypertension
Q1. Can I take herbal medicine together with my hypertension medication?
Combined management can gradually reduce drug dependency under medical supervision.
Q2. Is hypertension purely genetic?
We consider genetic tendencies while providing treatment that addresses the underlying causes.
Q3. What habits are most important for managing hypertension?
•
Reduce refined carbohydrates (sugar, fructose)
•
Include healthy fats (olive oil, nuts)
•
Maintain regular exercise and stress control
