[What is Ginseng]

In terms of modern scientific research, ginseng is known to be an adaptogen. Adaptogens are substances that assist the body to restore itself to health and work without side effects even if the recommended dose is widely exceeded.

Ginseng due to its adaptogens effects is widely used to lower cholesterol, increase energy and endurance, reduce fatique and effects of stress and prevent infections.

Ginseng is one of the most effective antiaging supplements. It can alleviate some major effects of aging, such as degeneration of the blood system, and increase mental and physical capacity.

Other important benefits of ginseng is its support in cancer treatment and its effects on sports performance.

Hey guys in this video we are going to go over how to harvest and cook wild lettuce greens. Wild Lettuce is a wild edible that grows from the spring to the fall and usually requires cooking despite it’s name. However in the early spring they can be consumed raw in small quantities because of their bitterness. To harvest wild lettuce greens simply find the center of the rosette and pull the leaves out of it without damaging the root. This ensures a harvest at a later date. Also make sure to grab any other leaves from the rosette that look good to you.

Now that we’ve gotten our lettuce greens we should cook them before consuming. How long to cook will depend on what stage they are in and their bitterness. The ones we are harvesting and cooking today will only need to boil for three to seven minutes. After boiling serve with butter or oil and season to taste. In this video we use garlic and butter for a simple way of cooking the greens.
