Heart disease is called chest paralysis (chest pain) in Chinese medicine. American ginseng does not have the effect of directly treating heart disease (chest paralysis), but it has the effect of relieving chest paralysis accompanied by qi and yin depletion, and it can be taken by mouth or decoction. American ginseng is a traditional Chinese medicine, which has the effect of tonifying qi and nourishing yin, clearing heat and generating fluids, and is useful in treating qi deficiency and yin deficiency, deficiency heat and tiredness, coughing, phlegm and blood, internal heat and thirst (internal heat accompanied by symptoms such as eating, drinking, urinating, etc.), and dryness of the mouth and throat. If heart disease is accompanied by qi and yin depletion, American ginseng can be taken under the guidance of a physician. The adverse effects and contraindications of American ginseng are not yet clear. It should be noted that American ginseng should not be used together with quassia, and it is not recommended to take this medicine in cases of yang deficiency, cold-dampness obstruction, or Qi depressing and fire depletion. Heart disease patients need to go to the hospital for medical treatment, not self-medication, so as not to cause adverse effects on the body.
