Return To Ginseng Article Archive   Ginseng - Asias Solution To Longevity By Steven Seferi Used by the Chinese for thousands of years, Ginseng has long been believed to increase longevity and the quality of a persons life. Funnily enough, it is derived from the Greek work Panax, which means panacea, or all healing. Let's discuss ginseng and its medicinal qualities. One of the most revered herbs in the Asian hemisphere, it has gained much popularity in promoting longevity and preventing such conditions as: depression, diabetes, fatigue, inflammation, nausea, tumors, pulmonary problems, vomiting, anxiety, stress, and ulcers. This is one fantastic herb! It has also been used in the treatment of cancer, anemia, insomnia, shock, radiation, environmental toxins, and chronic illness. It stimulates the appetite as well as energy; it eases childbirth. What is so fascinating about this herb is that is contains anti-aging properties, like antioxidants. Moreover, it's effect on the immune system has been studied for it's efficacy in preventing colds, flu, and some forms of cancer. Recent studies have determined that ginseng decreases blood levels of both sugar and cholesterol and might help in the treatment of Type II diabetes. Other studies reveal that a combination of ginseng and ginkgo biloba will increase memory. Because the components in ginseng promote the growth of blood vessels, this could be helpful in treating injuries. Also, the scope of effects from the use of ginseng reveals it has an influence on the central nervous system, cellular aging, internal organs, metabolism, blood pressure, and appears to relieve stress. Specific to stress reduction, which is caused by the adrenal glands secreting hormones used to ward off both physical and emotional stress, it is understood that ginseng is responsible for alleviating such stress. Most importantly, it has been reported to prolong survival time during cardiac arrests. Not only does it prevent diseases including cancer, diabetes, hypertension and impotence, but it helps in their treatment as well. It is also one of the few herbs that is known to help in the treatment of CFS. While chronic fatigue syndrome has puzzled physicians for decades, there is no recognized treatment for the overwhelming fatigue that typifies this condition. However, those suffering from this condition often report an improvement in their symptoms after taking regular ginseng supplements. Ginseng is one of the most popular of all herbal supplements, and one of the most commercially produced. It is important, therefore, for those shopping for a ginseng supplement to choose one made with the highest quality ingredients. It is also important to look for a ginseng supplement which has been processed as little as possible, as excessive processing is thought to lower the effectiveness of the ginseng herb.
