American Ginseng, or Panax quinquefolius, was identified in North America about 300 years ago in 1716.
American Ginseng and its asian counterpart Panax Ginseng belong to the genus of Araliaceae, but are different species. American Ginseng is relatively mild in nature and known to balance the yin-yang energy. It is considered a Panacea or cure-all in Chinese and Native Indian medicine. Its uses are known to be beneficial to the general well-being or recovery from major ailments.
American Ginseng is mainly produced in the state of Wisconsin in US. It has a worldwide reputation for being the purest. This is solely due to its cultivation in virgin soil that is free from contamination by pesticide residues and heavy metals. Wisconsin ginseng is rich in ginsenosides, polysaccharides, two major active medicinal ingredients.
Modern research has shown that ginseng can help relax the blood vessels, enhance blood circulation, and reduce blood sugar as well as blood pressure. It may also help boost the immune system, ease hot flushes in menopausal women, relieve physical fatigue, and enhance one's concentration and learning. These benefits are attributed to its active ingredients of ginsenosides, which increases the production of nitric oxide(NO).
