Ginseng contains active complex carbohydrates called saponins or ginsenosides. Individual ginsenosides appear to have different effects. Whereas one particular ginsenoside may stimulate the nervous system, another may soothe the nervous system. Other ginsenosides produce such effects as balancing metabolic processes, decreasing blood sugar, improving muscle tone, stimulating the endocrine system and maintaining proper hormone levels. Research has even shown that ginseng is effective in maintaining and restoring the cell's capacity to function - and therefore may reduce a number of symptoms of aging. Ginseng is usually recommended by Chinese herbalists to help stimulate the immune system and fight fatigue and stress. The herb has also been used to help athletes support the adrenal glands and the use of oxygen by exercising muscles. Ginseng's other reported effects include improved cognitive performance, learning, and memory and sensory awareness. Some scientists believe that the basis of ginseng's action stems from its tendency to increase the brain's adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) activity without involving the adrenal glands. A generalized mental arousal is thereby effected. The Panax Ginseng Roots and root hairs used in this product have been specially selected for their high concentration of ginsenosides, the most active constituent in ginseng.
