Siberian Ginseng
Siberian Ginseng Description
Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) and
American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) are
botanical cousins with different effects. A growth
period of four to six years is necessary for full
maturity of the herb's complex mixture of
energizing compounds known as ginsenosides,
panaxans (substances that reportedly lower blood
sugar), and polysaccharides (complex sugar
molecules that enhance the immune system).
High-quality ginseng root is expensive and must be
properly cured to be of any therapeutic value. A
recent analysis of products on the market revealed
that some so-called ginseng supplements are devoid
of active ingredients. Other examinations have
found that the amount of active ginsenosides in
different brands varies widely. Such ginseng
products as chewing gum and soft drinks probably
contain little if any of the root.
Use products standardized to contain at least 7%
ginsenosides, the main active ingredient in ginseng.
