Overview
Introduction
Red ginseng derives its name from the color that it takes on during a special preservation method that involves being steamed (and then sometimes sun dried) with the peel intact. Red ginseng usually always comes from China or Korea, and it is considered slightly stronger and more stimulating than white ginseng.
Parts Used
The whole root
Typical Preparations
Teas, extracts, or sometimes in capsules. More recently it has found its way into the energy drink market.
Summary
In Asia, wars have been fought over possession of fields where ginseng grew abundant and wild. Ginseng is a known adaptogen, which helps the body adapt to stress, and to help balance itself.
Precautions
Specific: The use of red ginseng may potentiate the effects of caffeine and other stimulants.
General: We recommend that you consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.
