It includes coronary heart disease (CHD), hypertension, arterial thrombosis, and arrhythmia etc., which are caused by various factors such as high blood pressure, lipid metabolism disorder and long-term smoking etc.. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been used to treat HVDs for thousands of years with remarkable effect. It is not only an effective treatment method but also an important part of the health system in China. In this paper, we will discuss the therapeutic effects of TCM on HVDs and its advantages over western medicine. The Mechanism of HVDs Treatment with TCM 1. Regulation of Endocrine Metabolism: Traditional Chinese medicine can effectively regulate endocrine metabolism by regulating qi flow and activating blood circulation to improve body's immune function and enhance its resistance to disease . For example, the herbs Astragalus membranaceus Bunge can promote the secretion of adrenocortical hormones to reduce inflammation; Danshen Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge can reduce cholesterol levels; Codonopsis pilosula Nannf can increase insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar level; Coptis chinensis Franch can regulate thyroid hormones level etc.. 2. Improve Circulation Function: The active ingredients in TCM such as flavonoids, polysaccharides , alkaloids etc., have strong antioxidant effect which can reduce oxidative damage caused by free radicals , improve microcirculation , protect vascular endothelial cells from damage , prevent thrombosis formation , reduce vascular spasm , improve cardiac contractility . For example, Ginkgo biloba L has been proved to have protective effects on myocardial ischemia ; Panax ginseng C A Meyer has anti-arrhythmic effects ; Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge can inhibit platelet aggregation ; Radix Angelicae Sinensis O Kuntze has anti-hypertensive effect . 3. Inhibit Platelet Aggregation : Many active ingredients in TCM such as flavonoids , polysaccharides , alkaloids etc., have strong anticoagulant effect which can inhibit platelet aggregation thus reducing thrombus formation . For example, Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge has been proved to have a significant inhibition on platelet aggregation ; Radix Paeoniae Alba L has antithrombotic effects ; Herba Epimedii Folium Erectum T Linnaeus also inhibits platelet aggregation . Commonly Used Herbs for Treating HVDs 1. Fructus Crataegi : It contains many active ingredients such as flavonoids , polysaccharides and organic acids which have anti-oxidant effect thus improving microcirculation . It is commonly used for treating CHD due to its ability to lower cholesterol levels and triglyceride levels in blood . 2. Radix Puerariae Lobatae : This herb contains many active compounds including flavonoids which act as natural antioxidants that protect cells from oxidative stress damage caused by free radicals . It also helps relieve angina pectoris symptoms by reducing inflammation and improving circulation function . 3. Radix Angelicae Sinensis O Kuntze : This herb contains many bioactive compounds that help lower cholesterol levels in blood thus reducing risk factors associated with CHD such as hypertension or atherosclerosis development . Its anticoagulant properties help prevent arterial thrombosis formation while its antioxidant activity helps protect vascular endothelial cells from damage thus preventing atherosclerosis development or progression . 4 Rhizoma Chuanxiong : This herb is rich in essential oils that help improve circulation function while its antispasmodic properties help relax muscles around arteries thus preventing arterial spasms or occlusion formation due to constriction of vessels walls due to spasms or tension accumulation around them .. Conclusion In conclusion, traditional Chinese medicine is an effective treatment option for heart and vascular diseases due its ability to regulate endocrine metabolism ，improve circulation function ，inhibit platelets aggregation ，and protect vascular endothelial cells from damage ．It offers several advantages over western medicine including fewer side effects ．However further research needs be done into its safety profile before it becomes widely accepted among medical professionals worldwide ..
