Is the hypertension vaccine good news for people with hypertension? Why are cardiologists not optimistic?

Many people consulted me and asked when the hypertension vaccine would be available on the market! I really don’t want to take blood pressure medicine anymore.

In fact, it’s still too early for hypertension vaccines to be on the market!

Because it is only in the animal experiment stage; more importantly, there are still many questions:

1. It’s not really a vaccine

This hypertension vaccine is different from traditional vaccines. The vaccines we use now, such as tuberculosis and hepatitis B, etc., either provide lifelong immunity and prevent the disease, or prevent the disease for a long time during the effective period of the vaccine. However, according to the results of current animal tests, this so-called hypertension vaccine can only last for 3 months, which means that an injection is required every 3 months. This is not a vaccine in the traditional sense, but just an injection to control high blood pressure.

Second, it is only animal testing

Even if this vaccine can lower blood pressure in rats and mice, it may not be effective in humans. Think about it, do rats smoke and drink? Do they sit for long periods of time without exercising? Do they eat a high-salt and high-fat diet? Do they stay up late for a long time? Do they become obese? Do they have various stresses? The rats just stay there and let the vaccine lower their blood pressure. These factors that cause high blood pressure in humans are almost unique to humans and difficult to change. So even if it can lower blood pressure in rats and mice, it may not be effective in humans. Many high blood pressure vaccines have failed in research over the past few decades.

3. It cannot solve the fundamental problem

Even if this so-called vaccine is effective, we people with high blood pressure will not need to take antihypertensive drugs every day in the future. We only need to go to the hospital for an injection every three months, which is indeed much more convenient. But even if this injection can control blood pressure for three months, we can't be happy just because blood pressure is under control. Don't think that you can indulge yourself and continue to have unhealthy habits such as smoking, drinking, eating and drinking, sitting for a long time without exercise, obesity and staying up late, etc. These habits will not only cause the problem of high blood pressure, but also cause obesity, diabetes, high blood lipids, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, tumors and other problems. Therefore, solving the problem of controlling blood pressure in a timely manner still cannot solve many other problems.

Humans think they are very smart. Once they discover a disease, they want to invent a vaccine. Of course, this may be effective for viral and bacterial diseases, but there is no progress in treating metabolic diseases such as the three highs of the human body and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

History of Hypertension Vaccines:

The international research on hypertension vaccines has a long history. In 1987, Michel JB and other scholars developed a renin antihypertensive vaccine, but unfortunately, the vaccine can cause people to suffer from autoimmune kidney diseases. Subsequently, scholars have studied new antihypertensive vaccines, but they have been proven ineffective in clinical trials.

In 2007, the Swiss company Cytos developed the CYT006-AngQb antihypertensive vaccine. During the trial, only the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine were confirmed, and it was not used in clinical practice.

In 2015, Japanese scholars invented angiotensin II-DNA vaccine, which can reduce the blood pressure of spontaneously hypertensive rats for a long time and prolong the survival rate. But it is only rats. As I said above, rats are not completely equivalent to humans, and this experiment is different from other animal experiments on the safety and effectiveness of drugs. That is, most of the causes of human hypertension are unhealthy lifestyles.

Some people say that the hypertension vaccine developed by Chinese scientists will soon be available on the market. Let's take a look:

Professor Liao Yuhua of my country started research on hypertension vaccine in 2004. The animal experiment on mice has been completed and the experiment on primates is about to begin. The subjects of this experiment are rats and mice weighing 250 grams. The study shows that after injection of hypertension vaccine, the blood pressure of rats dropped by an average of 19 mmHg, and that of mice dropped by an average of 35 mmHg. Professor Liao Yuhua predicts that the hypertension vaccine can be used for clinical treatment in 6 to 8 years.

Please note that this experiment is currently only limited to rats and mice!

Of course, we hope that scientists and medical experts will make new breakthroughs and be able to conquer hypertension, regardless of whether we are optimistic about this hypertension vaccine.

Now it does not affect our prevention and treatment of hypertension, because prevention is the best treatment!

Only by starting from childhood, living a healthy life, eating a low-salt, low-oil, low-sugar diet, exercising regularly, controlling weight, staying away from tobacco and alcohol, staying up late less, and being happy, can we get a vaccine for high blood pressure. This is not only a vaccine for high blood pressure, but also a vaccine to prevent the three highs, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and tumors.

The Healthy Life vaccine is trustworthy, and it has been on the market since you were born. The key is whether you activate this vaccine!
