Based on the results obtained from the review of numerous articles indexed in the databases ISI, Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar, etc, a number of plants have been reported to be used for the treatment and prevention of cardiovascular diseases and chest pain due to cardiac disease, including Curcuma longa, Sophora flavescens, Calendula officinalis, Carthamus tinctorius, Tripterygium wilfordi, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Ampelopsis grossedentata, Pseudotsuga menziesii, Vitis vinifera, Styphnolobium japonicum, Allium sativum. Pharmacological studies have also investigated the therapeutic effects of medicinal herbs, and also their clinical effects and the use of their active ingredients in the production of useful natural drugs.
