[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.

[Application]

1. Applied in food additives, it owns the effect of antifatigue, anti-aging and nourishing brain;

2. Applied in pharmaceutical field, it is used to treat coronary heart disease, angina cordis, bradycardia and high heart rate arrhythmia, etc.;

3. Applied in cosmetics field, it owns the effect of whitening, dispelling spot, anti-wrinkle, activating skin cells, making skin more tender and firm.

Our body can live with an acceptable level of toxicity without much harm done. When the threshold of toxicity is exceeded, problems will arise, ranging from a minor skin rash to a serious one like cancer. However, it’s difficult to know where the threshold is until something happens.

Toxic substances are absorbed into our body through the food we eat, the air we breathe, and the general environment we are exposed to everyday. Most toxins are not fatal because the amounts absorbed are usually small. Furthermore, our body is constantly cleansing them out to keep the accumulation in check.

The prescription given here is not strong enough to cure serious diseases like cancer all by itself. Moreover, no Chinese herbs are substance specific, that is, they are not known to be able to eliminate specific toxins or chemicals from the body. However, this prescription is good for regular use as a general cleansing treatment, or as a way to keep the toxicity level in the body well below threshold.

This prescription should achieve three things: cleanse the blood, assist the liver in its cleansing function, and assist the kidneys in expelling toxins via urination. The following herbs are used:
1) Cleanse blood
Sheng Di Huang 生地黃
Bai Hua She Cao 白花蛇草
Xian He Cao 仙鶴草
Chuan Xin Lian 穿心蓮
2) Assist liver in cleansing
