Chinese Ren Shen, 'root of heaven,' Panax ginseng, Asian 
ginseng, is native to Manchuria and Korea and is cultivated in 
China, Korea and Japan. The ginseng plant requires 5-7 years to 
mature from seed. Ginseng has a sweetly aromatic flavour. Its 
root has long been regarded by the Chinese as a panacea for 
illness, though it was usually used by them in a prophylactic 
(preventive) rather than a curative manner.

Many Native 
American tribes used American ginseng, Panax quinquefolia. 
Medicinal uses ranged from digestive disorders to sexual 
problems.

The Chinese began to use American ginseng after it 
was imported during the 1700s. The traditional applications in 
China are somewhat different from those for Panax ginseng (Asian 
ginseng), American ginseng being considered a better 
stomachic.

The type and ratio of ginsenosides are somewhat 
different in American and Asian ginseng, but not radically 
different. Pharmacologically, ginseng is nonspecific in its 
effects and is capable of a normalizing action irrespective of 
the pathological situation.

Ginseng's ginsenosides are 
believed to increase energy, counter the effects of stress, and 
enhance intellectual and physical performance. Thirteen 
ginsenosides have been identified in Asian ginseng. Ginsenosides 
Rgl and Rbl have received the most attention.

Other 
constituents include the panaxans, which help lower blood sugar, 
and the polysaccharides (complex sugar molecules), which support 
immune function.

Numerous double-blind studies have confirmed 
Chinese tradition, objectively demonstrating Asian ginseng's 
ability to lower blood sugar, reduce fatigue and stress, and 
support the normal function of the 
hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, the hormonal stress system 
of the body.

Ginseng's support of the brain's production of 
adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) appears to improve mental 
performance, learning, and memory and sensory awareness, exactly 
as Chinese tradition has always maintained.

The 1997 
Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German 
Federal Institute for Drugs, reflecting the opinion of modern 
scientific herbalism, recommends Ginseng root [Panax ginseng] 
'As tonic for invigoration and fortification in times of fatigue 
and debility, for declining capacity for work and concentration, 
also during convalescence.'

'Daily dosage: 1 - 2 g of root; 
equivalent preparations. Mode of Administration: Cut root for 
teas, powder and galenical preparations for internal use. 
Duration of Administration: Generally up to 3 months. A repeated 
course is feasible.'
