American Ginseng

American ginseng has long been a popular energizing and revitalizing tonic herb. Modern research supports its long history of use as an adaptogen, as an aid to help maintain the body’s vitality, strength and resistance to mental and physical stress, and to help maintain the healthy function of the immune system. It is considered fewer yangs and less stimulating than Asian ginsengs. For this reason, Chinese herbalists traditionally valued it for regular long-term use by males and females of all ages. They also used it to help with fatigue. Native Americans first used this herb as a tonic. In the 18th century, it became popular in America, and began being exported to China. Today, a large amount of the American ginseng grown in North America is exported to Asia. 100% pure American ginseng root sets this tea apart from other ginseng tea blends, creating a delicious tea with the maximum amount of this marvelous root.
