00:00Green tea may offer a small benefit for people watching their blood pressure.
00:04Researchers have found that its plant compounds may help blood vessels function more effectively.
00:09A meta-analysis of 24 randomized controlled trials found modest reductions in blood pressure.
00:15On average, systolic pressure dropped by 1.17 mmHg.
00:20Diastolic pressure fell by another 1.24 mmHg.
00:24But green tea also contains caffeine, which can temporarily raise blood pressure in some people.
00:30Chamomile tea works differently and does not directly lower blood pressure.
00:35Instead, its calming effects may support relaxation and better sleep.
00:39Chamomile is naturally caffeine-free, making it an option later in the day.
00:44Experts say neither tea should replace prescribed blood pressure treatment.
00:48A heart-healthy diet, regular exercise, quality sleep and stress management remain important.
00:53For some people, green tea earlier in the day and chamomile later may provide complementary benefits.
01:00But the overall impact of healthy daily habits remains far more important than relying on tea alone.
