Ginseng
Known as "the king of plants", the amazing properties of ginseng have spread all over the world.
Ginseng acts in the human organism in an adaptogenic way, that is, it has the capacity to increase physical and psychological resistance to adverse conditions such as stress, restoring balance and normality to its functions.
Although of similar properties, the one known as Siberian ginseng, being of the same family, belongs to a different gender, reason why it is not considered the same medicinal plant. It is a cheaper alternative crop, although it has similar properties, does not contain ginsenosides, which are found in other varieties, so their benefits are not identical.
Ginseng root also contains other amounts, although to a lesser extent, of B group vitamins, amino acids, essential oils, enzymes and minerals.
Currently red Korean ginseng is the most in demand, and also the one with the highest price in the market.
There are many types of this herb, but the most popular are American ginseng and Asian ginseng.
Ginseng has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties beneficial to our body.
Ginseng may help improve brain functions such as memory, behavior, and mood.
Ginseng can be a useful alternative for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in men, as the compounds it contains can protect against oxidative stress in the blood vessels and tissues in the penis and help restore normal function. Ginseng promotes the production of nitric oxide, a compound that improves muscle relaxation in the penis and increases blood circulation.
One study of Panax ginseng showed it improved sexual function in men with erectile dysfunction. A cream preparation is used for premature ejaculation
Ginseng may be helpful in reducing the risk of certain cancers...
Like any other plant, ginseng has properties that in excess can be harmful to health.
The consumption of ginseng should be regulated, so that it is not harmful to health.
What is your opinion about ginseng?
Great post. In the dietary supplement market, there is significant new interest in adaptagens for stress management as you mention. This is a good study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5628357/
I think there was one study of Panax ginseng which showed it improved sexual function in men with erectile dysfunction. You should locate it and link to it. As always, you should consult your healthcare provider before supplementing.
Thank you friend for your suggestion, very kind of you and you are very right, first you should consult a medical professional.
