What is it? Panax ginseng is a perennial herb indigenous to the mountains of northeastern China and Korea. Panax ginseng dates back to the first century A.D. when the Chinese first used it for overall wellness. It wasn’t until 1711 that a Jesuit missionary first introduced the plant to the West. During the 1940s ginseng was brought to the forefront of alternative medicine, and since then it has become one of the most widely researched herbs in the world. A number of ingredients, primarily ginsenosides, form the active constituent in panax ginseng. As an adaptogen, panax ginseng helps maintain balance among the various systems of the body and helps optimize health and well being. Other medicinal uses of panax ginseng include: stimulant, relieves nausea and vomiting, normalizes menstruation, promotes mental and physical vigor, promotes appetite, digestive disturbances, chest problems, restores sexual energy.
