Not necesarily: This is like asking if you should avoid pharmaceutical drugs if you have high blood pressure. There are thousands of Chinese herbal formulas;some will be beneficial for high blood pressure while others may aggravate it.I advise avoiding taking such teas without the guidance of an acupuncturist or specialist in Chinese herbs;such a practitioner will help assure the ones you take are good for you.
