Saint Hildegard, i.e. Hildegard von Bingen, the most famous and still recognized herbalist and healer of the Middle Ages, used galangal tea (Alpinia Galanga) to address heart and cardiovascular issues with great success. The reliable cardiac efficacy of Alpinia galanga is one of the most sensational discoveries of Hildegard medicine.
Galangal can improve blood supply to the heart and circulatory system and stimulate digestion. It has been used successfully as a remedy for heartaches, heart failure, and dizziness for 800 years, and can also effectively protect against circulatory collapse, motion sickness, and extreme fatigue.
To be effective, Galangal must dissolve on the tongue, due to the “tongue-heart reflex”, and this way one can prevent heart pain from developing into a heart attack. Thanks to its spicy pungent taste, Galangal opens narrow coronary arteries and brings more oxygen to the heart through the tongue-heart reflex. This results in better heart muscle circulation, so heartaches can quickly disappear.
This opening of blood vessels causes an immediate drop in stress-induced high blood pressure. Galang tea (Alpinia Galangal) can greatly help in COVID-19 infections and long COVID cases as well.
Older studies have shown that during SARS-Cov-2 infection in COVID-19 patients, the dramatic decrease in the anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 caused a cytokine storm and damaged tissues. The great news is that an August 2023 study proved that the Alpinia galanga extract significantly increased the level of IL-10, and therefore has a strong anti-inflammatory effect on both peripheral blood mononuclear cells and blood vessels:
“Anti-inflammatory effect of Alpinia galanga extract on acute inflammatory cell model of peripheral blood mononuclear cells stimulated with TNF-α” PubMed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37300465/
It is still incomprehensible why this 800-year-old medicinal plant was not used during the pandemic.
Another pharmacological study showed that Galangal also contains gallic acid. Gallic acid has antiviral and antifungal effects and has a very high anti-inflammatory and antioxidant capacity:
