What are Ginseng and its benefits?


GINSENG


                       Ginseng is considered by some cultures of the Orient as one of the most nutritional herbs, as well as one of the most expensive in the world. Its botanical name is Panax Ginseng or Siberian Ginseng or Eleuterococcus. The shape of this plant’s root is similar to that of the human body.

                       Ginseng has been known for its therapeutic properties since 3000 BC and was brought to Europe for the first time in 1610 AD by Dutch merchants.

                      Ginseng is known as a great adapter that is to say that it helps to normalize functions of the body when a person has been subjected to heavy stress, reacting positively on the nervous and hormonal system. Dr. Breckham of Russia has found that Ginseng is very helpful to the body in :-

1.                      Stimulating physical and mental activity in weak or tired patients, which is its most well known effect.

2.                      Fortifying the human body when it is exposed to severe and prolonged physical exertion.

3.                   The proper function of the endocrine gland, particularly the hypophysis, the suprarenal and the sexual glands.

4.                   Stimulating the nerve cells of the brain, strengthening and correcting some nervous illnesses like psychosomatic disturbances, in addition to increasing intellectual activity.

5.                   No side effects have been determined from taking Ginseng.

6.                   In investigations done by the National Cancer Research Institute of Maryland, eleutherococcus, a type of Spiny Ginseng was found to help in the treatment of cancer.

7.                  In Australia, it is used to prevent heart disease and high blood pressure.

8.                  In Germany, more than 1 million cups of ginseng are consumed daily. It tones the gray matter of the brain, is a sedative and also normalizes body functions. It stimulates the production of red and white blood cells as well as lowering the cholesterol level in the blood. In the gastrointestinal system, it improves digestive secretions and is a great for increasing sexual activity.

9.               At the University of Osaka in Japan, it has been discovered that Ginseng helps to: improve memory, improve blood circulation, improve metabolism, restore the nervous system, normalize glucose levels in the blood as well as improving fertility in men.

Royal Jelly and Ginseng:-

               This combination results in one of the most energizing and vitalizing products known, given that the nutritional values in each stimulate brain and nervous functions and provide the muscles with vital energy. Both products work as adapters, that is, they help the body obtain stability in moments of stress and nervous tension.

Golden Sage:-

               Taking Ginseng with Chia Dorada (Golden Sage, a member of the Labiate family) produces great therapeutic effects. It helps to prevent rheumatism, neuralgia, hemorrhages, liver problems and improves teeth & bad breath. It helps in the prevention of spasms and chills, colds and pleurisy. It has also been found beneficial against migraines and other headaches.
When Golden Sage is taken together with Ginseng, the effects of both are multiplied.
