In addition, hypertension is a common and frequently occurring disease among middle-aged and elderly people, especially in the cold winter when the weather becomes colder, which can cause the condition to recur:

1. Cold stimulation can reduce the elasticity of blood vessels in the body, increase peripheral resistance, and increase blood pressure. 

2. Cold stimulation can stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, increase the secretion of adrenal cortex hormones, and cause small artery spasms and contractions, increase peripheral resistance, and raise blood pressure.

3. Cold stimulation can increase the content of fibrinogen in the blood, increase blood viscosity, and promote the formation of clots in the blood. Therefore, it can lead to diseases such as cerebral hemorrhage or cerebral infarction. Therefore, patients with hypertension and cardiovascular diseases should pay special attention to self-care and strengthen health care during the cold season.

For hypertensive patients, simply taking health supplements, will not cause hypertension, especially those who take Cistanche deserticola. Moreover, Cistanche deserticola has a long history of longevity and longevity as recorded in written records:
