Ginseng Properties & Benefits

Ginseng is a staple of traditional herbal medicine. It is considered to be one of the most powerful of medicinal herbs-improving one's circulatory system and enhancing the body's metabolism. Numerous books, articles and research herald ginseng as an "adaptogen" and nontoxic substance that helps the body to adapt to stress. Researchers have isolated certain plant compounds called saponins which are believed to be the reason for ginseng's adaptogenic properties.

Usually, the root of an herb is always stronger than the leaves and that is why the ginseng root is prized. It is often referred to as the "manroot" because its shape resembles a man's configuration. In fact, the better shaped roots command more value. Ginseng is not an annual crop, but a six year cultivated crop.
