Abstract

Objective. To establish a method for analysis of microelements in five kinds of traditional Chinese medicine in high blood pressure medicinal food, mainly including manganese, cobalt, selenium, iron, magnesium, and other 15 elements. Methods. The samples were digested using a microwave digestion instrument through NHO3-H2O2 solution, and then, the elements were synthesized by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). Results. The content of cobalt, manganese, zinc, copper, and nickel in the high blood pressure diet foods is higher, the RSD is between 0.005% and 4.82%, and the recovery rate ranges from 93.40% to 106.5%. The precision and recovery of the detection method are higher. Conclusion. The experiment result is better. Medicinal foods curing high blood pressure contain a number of micronutrients that are beneficial to the human body. This experiment provides some meaningful basis for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension.

Highlights

  • High blood pressure has become a common disease in today’s society, and the incidence of hypertension tends to be low, but the regimen is becoming a hot topic [1]. e key to preventing and relieving high blood pressure is proper diet

  • Trace elements, including minerals, regulate myocardial contraction and the components of the cell membrane, involved in cellular function, lipid control stability, antioxidation, regulation of blood pressure, and blood clotting. us, the disorder of trace elements can affect the synthesis of some enzymes and proteins, causing damage to the wall of the blood vessel and indirectly causing hypertension

  • It can be clearly seen that the concentrations of K, Ca, Na, Mg, and Fe were comparatively high among the trace elements in Table 5. e concentration order was K > Ca > Na > Mg > Fe > Zn > Mn > Cu > Co

High blood pressure has become a common disease in today’s society, and the incidence of hypertension tends to be low, but the regimen is becoming a hot topic [1]. E key to preventing and relieving high blood pressure is proper diet. Medicinal food can be used to prevent and assist the treatment of high blood pressure; the raw materials are cheap and easy to obtain, the method is simple and convenient, the side effect is small, and the effect is persistent. Us, the disorder of trace elements can affect the synthesis of some enzymes and proteins, causing damage to the wall of the blood vessel and indirectly causing hypertension. Microelements have a close association with high blood pressure
