How should I use Ginseng?Is it bad for my health?

Answer 1

Ginseng is reputedly good for many things and Chinese believe it to be an aphrodisiac. However there seems to be no proof that it does anything beneficial. Claims for the good results are only that...claims! It is harmless enough, so it is safe for daily consumption. Asians follow many traditional herbal remedies and while some are useful, others produce no demonstrable effects. Ginseng is often made into a slightly acrid tea or powdered and encapsulated. There are three varieties, American,Chinese or Korean and there are various opinions on which is the best. Korean tends to be the cheapest but American is the more expensive. The American is grown on farms but can be wild collected in PA, WV and nearby states. The roots are washed, dried and then made into the tea. Don't expect health benefits but drink the tea if you like it, much the same as birch bark tea.
