Description

Ginseng has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for centuries and is known for treating medical conditions and is considered one of the most popular alternative remedies available. It’s been used for lowering blood pressure, improving both physical and cognitive function. In the body care industry, ginseng is most impressive because of its ability to prevent aging, reduce stress, soothe inflammation, increase energy, and stimulate the mind.

Among its many health benefits, ginseng is considered an adaptogen, a substance that helps fight off stressors of all kinds. Along with its anti-inflammatory properties, ginseng is seen to prevent inflammation and improve immune function. Studies suggest that ginseng effects cytokine levels and signaling proteins that are involved in inflammatory responses.

Ginseng is considered an expensive herb due to its medicinal uses and its scarcity. Ginseng goes above and beyond all other herbs, with its many health benefits. It also takes a long time to harvest (anywhere from 5 to 10 years for the plant to grow) and only in specific weather conditions,  all this contributes to its high price. Also, the older the ginseng root, the more expensive it is. The mature roots have denser nutrient profiles. The more expensive ginseng roots, usually over 20-years-old tend to be more expensive. Ginseng has been declared endangered in many parts of the United States, contributing even more to its scarcity.

Common Uses /Benefits

On skin, ginseng extract delivers numerous antioxidant compounds, including various flavonoids, as well as being a good source of B vitamins.

Research has also shown that topical application of ginseng extract boosts skin hydration, diminishes rough texture, helps fade uneven skin tone, and help visibly improve wrinkles by working within skin to improve its natural firmness.

For Hair, ginseng is believed to increase the dermal cells on the scalp which, in turn, strengthens the follicles and roots of the hair. This not only encourages the new growth of strands but also prevents hair thinning and breakage.
