What are the effects and functions of mixing Panax notoginseng and American ginseng?

The combination of Panax notoginseng and American ginseng can better help us improve and treat some existing diseases in the body. It can effectively treat angina pectoris caused by coronary heart disease, and it can also play a good role in nourishing yin and qi, as well as regulating yin and yang.

1. Traditional Chinese medicine uses Panax notoginseng as a blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing drug to treat coronary heart disease and angina pectoris and has achieved significant results. Excessive blood viscosity is the main cause of blood system diseases such as coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, and cerebral hemorrhage. Panax notoginseng has the effects of inhibiting platelet aggregation, promoting the activity of plasmin, reducing blood viscosity, promoting thrombus dissolution, and improving blood flow. Experiments have shown that Panax notoginseng total glycosides have the effect of promoting blood circulation, dilating heart blood vessels, increasing coronary flow, inhibiting thrombosis, resisting platelet aggregation, and can dissolve formed thrombi and increase nutritional myocardial blood flow.

2. At the same time, Panax notoginseng can also lower arterial pressure, slightly reduce heart rate, reduce cardiac workload, and thus significantly reduce myocardial oxygen consumption. It can be used to treat myocardial ischemia, angina pectoris and shock. Experiments have shown that Panax notoginseng total saponins have a certain degree of antagonistic effect on various experimental arrhythmia models. Yunnan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine uses Panax notoginseng (the commonly used medicinal part) and raw Panax notoginseng powder to treat patients with hypertension, coronary heart disease, cerebral arteriosclerosis and other conditions accompanied by increased blood lipids and cholesterol, and has achieved good results. The method of taking it is very simple: take 1 gram of raw Panax notoginseng powder each time, twice a day, with warm water, and one month is a course of treatment.

3. There are many ways to maintain your heart. Here I would like to introduce a simple recipe - Panax notoginseng and American ginseng powder. This small prescription is used to treat blood stasis in the heart meridians and deficiency of both Qi and Yin. The specific ingredients are: equal amounts of Panax notoginseng powder and American ginseng powder. Mix the two evenly and take with warm water daily. The dosage can be increased or decreased according to the condition of the disease. Generally, people can take one gram of mixed powder per day. You can also add Salvia miltiorrhiza to this prescription, also in equal amounts. After adding it, it is also beneficial for the maintenance of cerebral blood vessels.

4. Take Panax notoginseng powder and American ginseng powder together. On the one hand, Panax notoginseng can remove blood stasis and dredge meridians. On the other hand, American ginseng can replenish both Qi and Yin. This is a comprehensive maintenance for the heart. If the patient also suffers from blood deficiency, he will also take longan meat. In this way, the heart's qi, blood, yin and yang will be replenished, and at the same time it will be protected by Panax notoginseng which can dissolve blood stasis. This is really a happy thing for the heart. When the patient suffers from the condition in which the dampness caused by excessive water and moisture obscures the heart yang and needs to warm the yang and remove dampness, this prescription is not effective. Also, pregnant women should not take it.
