What is ginseng?
|
| |
|
Ginseng is
known as an adaptogen. Adaptogens are substances that enable
the body to better cope with stress. An adaptogen increases
resistance to various stress factors and has the unique ability
of being able to normalise body functions. If an adaptogen
is taken to normalise blood sugar, it should increase blood
sugar level when it is low and vice versa. A true adaptogen
would not change blood sugar level that is normal. |

Are there any

(mild breast pain) and vaginal bleeding. Ginseng should not
be taken with antidepressant or antipsychotic drugs, caffeinated
beverages, hormone treatments, or any herbal remedies containing
iron, or with Indian or Chinese teas. |

be partly mediated by the release of nitric oxide, a potent
antioxidant. |
