There are more herbal medicines that can be taken for hyperlipidemia, including hawthorn, gynostemma, red currant, lotus leaf, etc. All of these herbal medicines have certain auxiliary effects on lipid lowering, but they cannot completely extinguish the use of lipid-lowering drugs and the control of diet and exercise. In the clinical process for the Chinese medicine treatment aspect of hyperlipidemia, in addition to the choice of drugs, there are some non-drugs, including traditional Chinese medicine treatment methods, which are also widely used in hyperlipidemia. Therefore, if hyperlipidemia must be evaluated for the need of using drugs or just diet or exercise control, it is more important how to prevent and control it than what herbs to take.
