The use of ginseng for medical purposes dates back to 5000 years ago and is purported to be an anti-aging agent. In modern times, ginseng has been widely recognised as an adaptogen, and helps to increase resistance to stress and restore homeostasis. It is now increasingly popular and readily available as tea, powder, capsules or tablets. The principle bioactive components of American ginseng, ginsenosides, have been successfully isolated in experimental studies and proven to demonstrate various medical properties. Clinical studies are also actively conducted for various pharmacological actions.
