I want to add to this.
Conjecture: Ginseng acts on the blood to bring
the biochemistry back into proper balance.
This issue, not surprisingly is often age related but is certainly not
restricted to that and can be a side effect of pharmaceuticals.
Conjecture: It
has been shown to resolve hormonal imbalances created by menopause. This is obviously a likely blood imbalance
problem. Thus it is inferred as a
preferred treatment for menopause. ( particularly the cheapest Chinese ginseng
in dried chip form)
Conjecture: Is
has been indicated that a significant side effect of many artificial
pharmaceuticals is a blood disturbance that then mimics many other problems. Thus it is inferred that such drugs can work
much better in the presence of ginseng.
From the above it appears
that ginseng is a natural highly effective blood tonic that restores correct
blood balance.
Was this plant deliberately
designed to do this? It takes years to
mature. Most is harvested at the four
year mark and you cannot replant.
However it manufactures these key ingredients and obviously concentrates
them. Thus it likely also does something
within the soil itself in concert with other biological agents in forest loam
when wild.
Seven
health benefits of ginseng

It's simply amazing how natural herbs and foods can have multiple, wonderful
health benefits! Take for instance ginseng (usually Korean/Asian Red Ginseng, Panax ginseng), it lives up to its cure-all description (Panax means "all-curing/healing" in Greek)!
Add another health benefit to the list! Recently published research in Nutrients has demonstrated that ginseng can help
treat and prevent influenza!
The
Study
Research
found that using red ginseng daily over the long term can prevent the effects
of influenza A. Influenza is a deadly respiratory illness that affects millions
each year with new strains having the capability of spreading rapidly
worldwide! Over the long term, daily oral administration of red ginseng
improved the survival of lung epithelial cells infected with influenza and also
reduced associated inflammation! The researchers hypothesized that this could
be due to the immune-modifying effects of red ginseng that prevented or reduced
the symptoms of the flu!
Six Other Amazing Benefits
Ginseng
has been found to have a number of other amazing benefits! Although there are
dozens (if not hundreds), below are six additional uses of ginseng (most
commonly the Korean/Asian red ginseng).
Reverses Lung Damage from Asthma: Due to the serious side effects of current asthma therapies, such as osteoporosis and cataracts, scientists are searching for better alternatives. One promising alternative was published in the journal Allergy and Asthma Proceedings. This research found that mice that were given ginseng daily had a reduction in the symptoms of chronic lung damage associated with murine (mice) asthma. This could potentially be a future treatment for human sufferers.

Prevents Bad Breath: A 2009 study published in the journal Digestion found that red ginseng can help prevent bad breath that is associated with Helicobacter pylori bacteria. In fact, after 10 weeks of supplementation, bad breath was reduced completely!
Effective Against Obesity: Research published in the journal Phytotherapy Research found that a red ginseng constituent, ginsenoside Rg3, helped inhibit cells from completing the storage of fat. Likewise, it was found that when mice were administered wild ginseng orally they had a loss of body weight compared to control mice!
Reduces Allergy Symptoms: A 2012 study published in the journal Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Research found that fermented red ginseng had the ability to reduce allergy symptoms by reducing inflammation! The anti-inflammatory ability of fermented red ginseng was determined by giving participants six 250 mg pills of fermented red ginseng a day! It was found to reduce their allergy symptoms and improve their quality of life!
Fights Fatigue: Ginseng is a natural energy booster and can be used to help fight fatigue and give energy to cancer and multiple sclerosis patients! Researchers at the Mayo Clinic found that a daily dose of Wisconsin ginseng (at least 1,000 mg) could improve cancer patients' quality of life by fighting fatigue and improving their energy!
Stimulates Hair Growth: For centuries, the Chinese have used ginseng for medicinal purposes, and this was commonly one of them. Ginseng can help the body adapt to stress! Stress is a known factor for hair loss (along with a number of other things). You can find many shampoos that have ginseng in them, or you can take a ginseng supplement orally as well!
Side
Effects of Ginseng
As with
any nutritional recommendation, it's always a good idea to consume in
moderation! There are several considerations to keep in mind before you start
supplementing ginseng into your diet. First, there are some common side effects
of restlessness, elevated heart rate, headaches/dizziness and nausea that can
accompany ginseng supplementation. Likewise, if you are on a heart disease,
other cardiovascular or blood clotting medication, you should not take ginseng
due to the blood pressure and heart implications (see your doctor before taking
ginseng).
Wrap-Up
Ginseng truly is an amazing plant and lives up to its name as
a cure-all! Although it has been used medicinally for at least 5,000 years, we
are still discovering its uses! Next time you are experiencing anything from
fatigue to hair loss, take a look at this natural cure-all!
