Can coronary heart disease be cured by taking Panax ginseng?

Taking Panax ginseng alone cannot treat coronary heart disease. Panax ginseng is a traditional Chinese medicine, which mainly plays the role of activating blood circulation, improving blood circulation and dilating blood vessels. However, the pathogenesis of coronary heart disease is that the endothelium of blood vessels is damaged and too much blood lipid is deposited on the blood vessels, resulting in narrowing of blood vessels. It is necessary to take plaque stabilizing and lipid-lowering drugs, not just blood-boosting or vasodilating drugs. Drugs that prevent platelet aggregation, such as aspirin, are indicated for patients with acute coronary artery disease or stable coronary artery disease. Panax ginseng does not have a strong and effective effect against platelet aggregation and cannot replace aspirin. In acute cardiovascular events, the blind use of Panax ginseng after taking large amounts of anti-platelet drugs can lead to an increased likelihood of gastrointestinal bleeding.
