Abstract

Background and Objective: Diabetes mellitus is often concomitant with hypertension, which manifests a 3-fold greater risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Recent studies suggest the ability of American (AG) and Korean red ginseng (KRG) species to improve diabetes control via complementary mechanisms. Additionally, a KRG-inherent component, ginsenoside Rg3, may moderate blood pressure (BP). Our objective, therefore, is to investigate the therapeutic potential of co-administration of Rg3-enriched Korean Red Ginseng (Rg3-KRG) and AG, added to conventional treatment, in the management of hypertension and glycemic control in type 2 diabetes.
