American Ginseng Liquid

Prevention: Ginseng may help the body combat a variety of illnesses. It stimulates the production of specialized immune cells called killer T cells, which destroy harmful viruses and bacteria. Studies have also indicated that the herb may inhibit the growth of certain cancer cells. A large Korean study found that the risk of developing cancer in people who took ginseng was half that of subjects who did not take it. Although ginseng powders and tinctures were shown to have cancer-preventive effects, eating fresh ginseng root or drinking ginseng juice or tea did not lower cancer risk. Additional benefits: Ginseng may benefit people who are feeling fatigued and overstressed and those recovering from a long illness. The herb has been shown to balance the release of stress hormones in the body and support the organs that produce these hormones, namely the pituitary gland and hypothalamus in the brain and the adrenal glands, located on top of the kidneys. Ginseng may also enhance the production of endorphins, "feel-good" chemicals produced by the brain. Many long-distance runners and body-builders take ginseng to heighten physical endurance. Herbalists believe that ginseng can delay fatigue by enabling the exercising muscles to use energy more efficiently. Some research, however, contradicts this hypothesis. Though the way it works is not clear, ginseng may be helpful for impotence. Some of its active ingredients appear to affect smooth muscle tissue and improve erectile function. Men with fertility problems may benefit from ginseng as well because animal studies indicate it increases testosterone levels and sperm production. People with non-insulin-dependent diabetes (type 2) may benefit from ginseng. In one study, people with diabetes who took 100 or 200 mg of ginseng a day had lower blood sugar levels than those given a placebo.
