The Rise of Cardiometabolic Health Concerns

Modern lifestyles have dramatically increased the prevalence of metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions including:

• High blood sugar
• High blood pressure
• Poor circulation
• Elevated cholesterol
• Chronic inflammation

Together, these factors increase long-term cardiovascular risk.

For centuries, people in southern China and Southeast Asia drank Shan Tuyết Mountain Vine Tea (Ampelopsis cantoniensis) as a daily wellness beverage to support circulation, vitality, and longevity.

Today, modern research on dihydromyricetin (DHM) is uncovering how this traditional tea may support heart and metabolic health.

Understanding Cardiometabolic Health

Heart health is not just about the heart.
It depends on multiple systems working together:

✔ Blood vessel function
✔ Blood sugar regulation
✔ Inflammation balance
✔ Antioxidant protection
✔ Lipid metabolism

Research shows DHM influences many of these pathways.

1. Supports Healthy Blood Sugar Regulation

One of the most researched benefits of DHM is its role in glucose metabolism.

Scientific studies show DHM may:

• Improve insulin sensitivity
• Enhance glucose uptake
• Reduce oxidative stress linked to high blood sugar

A study in Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry found DHM helped regulate glucose metabolism in experimental models.

Balanced blood sugar supports:
• Energy levels
• Weight management
• Heart health
• Metabolic stability

2. Supports Healthy Blood Pressure

Blood vessel function plays a major role in blood pressure regulation.

Research shows vine tea flavonoids may help:

✔ Relax blood vessels
✔ Improve endothelial function
✔ Reduce oxidative stress in vascular tissue

A study published in Phytomedicine reported that DHM may help improve vascular health and support normal blood pressure regulation.

3. Powerful Antioxidants Protect the Cardiovascular System

Oxidative stress damages:

• Blood vessels
• Heart tissue
• Cholesterol particles

DHM is a potent antioxidant that helps:

• Neutralize free radicals
• Protect endothelial cells
• Support circulation

Antioxidant protection is a key pillar of cardiovascular wellness.

4. Supports Healthy Cholesterol Balance

Oxidized LDL cholesterol contributes to plaque formation in arteries.

Research suggests DHM may help:

• Reduce lipid accumulation
• Improve cholesterol metabolism
• Reduce oxidative damage to lipids

Supporting healthy lipid metabolism is essential for heart health.

5. Reduces Cardiovascular Inflammation

Chronic inflammation is a major contributor to heart disease.

Studies show DHM exhibits anti-inflammatory activity that may help support:

• Vascular health
• Circulatory function
• Metabolic balance

6. Supports Metabolic Syndrome Prevention

Metabolic syndrome includes:

• High blood sugar
• High blood pressure
• Abdominal fat
• Insulin resistance

Research suggests DHM may help regulate pathways involved in metabolic syndrome.

This makes vine tea a promising daily metabolic wellness tea.

Why Drink Vine Tea for Heart & Metabolic Wellness?

Regular consumption may help:

🌿 Support healthy blood sugar
🌿 Promote healthy blood pressure
🌿 Provide antioxidant protection
🌿 Support circulation
🌿 Encourage daily wellness rituals

Small daily habits create long-term heart health.

Suggested Daily Heart & Metabolic Ritual

Morning → Blood sugar support
Afternoon → Circulation support
Evening → Recovery and relaxation

Consistency is key.

Final Thoughts

Cardiometabolic health is built through daily habits.

Shan Tuyết Mountain Vine Tea offers a rare combination of traditional wisdom and modern scientific validation for heart and metabolic wellness.
