What is it?

Ginseng is a plant characterized by a fleshy root and a single stalk with green oval-shaped leaves. It is a perennial plant that can live more than a century. Ginseng extract is typically derived from the root of this plant. As an herbal supplement, the extract has long been prized for its reputation of having anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and antioxidant properties. It is also used in the homeopathic treatment of conditions, including depression, stress, low libido, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Studies have shown that ginseng extract can improve balance, help prevent diabetes, cure anemia, and strengthen the gastrointestinal system. Research in Asia has also shown thatginseng extract can benefit people who have coughs, asthma, and tuberculosis. Both the physical and mental effects of stress have been improved with the use of ginseng. It was even found to decrease the effects of alcohol intake and subsequent hangovers.

Ginseng extract is a common ingredient in energy drinks, ginseng tea, and diet aids. Otherginseng products include chewing gum, candy, deodorant, and hair gel. Products that contain Siberian ginseng, also called eleuthero, may be misleading as this particular herb is technically not ginseng. Although the benefits of Siberian ginseng extract are similar to that of ginseng, the plant has a woody root that is unlike the fleshy root of a true ginseng species.
