====== Ginseng ======

[[Ginseng]] (Panax ginseng) has [[antiplatelet]] activity through [[thromboxane]] inhibition and platelet-activating factor
((Teng CM, Kuo SC, Ko FN, et al. Antiplatelet actions of panaxynol and ginsenosides isolated from gin- seng. Biochim Biophys Acta. 1989; 990:315–320)).

Some authors also advocate cautious use of ginger and vitamin E when planning a surgery, but the exact antiplatelet mechanism is unclear
((Stanger MJ, Thompson LA, Young AJ, et al. Anticoagulant activity of select dietary supplements. Nutr Rev. 2012; 70:107–117)).
