Ginseng is a boon regarding healing benefits that it provides with. It has taken over as an aid to provide protection and cure against many medical conditions, some of which I have listed below.

Both American and Asian Ginseng are very useful to provide a boost of energy, lower blood sugar, and cholesterol, treat diabetes, sexual dysfunctions in male and stress relief.

1. Menstrual Problems​
Ginseng is found very effective in relieving menstrual pain in women. It is believed to provide with calming and tranquillising effects which is why, during menstruation, the spasms are reduced.

Consuming Ginseng Tea during this time relieves pain to significant levels. Also, during the pre - menopausal symptoms, Ginseng is found very useful. It uplifts mood and provides energy apart from reducing pain.

2. Hair Re - Growth​
If you are concerned about baldness, I suggest you try Ginseng for hair re - growth. What this medicinal herb does is that it increases the production of dermal papilla cells.

In addition to this, it also increases the life of these cells and prevents the cells from dying. When these cells die, that is when hair loss happens. The proliferation of these cells facilitates by improving the blood circulation in the scalp.

Regular intake of Ginseng can prevent your hair from falling and also cure baldness to much extent by regenerating the dermal papilla cells.

3. Anti - Ageing and Skin Improvement​
Ginseng is very helpful in providing anti - aging properties to skin and improving it.

It contains a lot of phytonutrients and anti - oxidants that increase the skin’s metabolism. The anti - oxidants make your skin free of free radicals, leaving it rejuvenated.​

Skin is mostly damaged by environmental conditions and sunlight, which further damages the collagen. Ginseng regrows the collagen in the middle layer of your skin and makes it toned and wrinkle free.

It also makes the skin look fairer and clear without blemishes. Because it boosts the metabolism of skin, it discards the dead cells and brings out fresh and new cells.

Topical use of Ginseng leaves can leave your skin healthier and attractive. In addition to this, if you are suffering from acne or eczema like skin disorders, Ginseng will take care of them all.

4. Treats Dark Circles and Puffy Eyes​
​To your happiness, Ginseng can also get you away from those ugly looking dark circles under your eyes. If you have puffy eyes, you can get rid of them with regular use of Ginseng.

For dark circles, you can try ginseng face masks; they are very effective.

5. Cancer​
Ginseng also has the anti - tumor growth properties. It can prevent the tumor from growing by inhibiting its growth cycle. Some elements in Ginseng are found to possess this property.

Scientists have discovered in their research that Ginsenosides present in Ginseng can damage the prostate cancer cells, ovarian cancer cells, lung cancer cells amongst much more.

They do this by inhibiting the cell cycle progression thus, reducing the cancerous cell growth. Consumption of Ginseng after breast cancer detection is found to improve the chances of survival in women.

6. Diabetes​
Ginseng, specifically American Ginseng is found to lower the blood sugar levels and help with Type 2 diabetes in people. If you want to cure naturally or relieve diabetes, consume Ginseng.

In a scientific study, a man who consumed Ginseng with and without a sugar contained drink showed lower levels of sugar. It prevents the blood sugar level from spiking.

It possesses glucoregulatory properties that keep the blood glucose low or in control.

7. Weight Loss
If you are looking forward to shedding weight naturally, nothing is better than Ginseng. It helps in natural weight reduction and is a gradual process. Before trying on those synthetic slimming pills, you should try Ginseng tea.​

Ginseng tea is found to be super effective in facilitating weight loss. It increases metabolism that prevents the deposition of fat in the body. It provides energy to the body and makes it all the more active.

Moreover, Ginseng also keeps blood glucose and sugar in control. If the glucose levels are lower, then there will be less fat deposition.

I will elaborate this section later in this article. With some natural preparations of Ginseng, I will tell you how can you reduce weight without much effort and botheration.

8. Sexual Problems in Men​
Ginseng has shown an enormous amount of contribution in improving the sexual health of men and treating their erectile dysfunction. In an experiment, nearly 60% of men agreed that they had experienced successful erections and with more ease after taking Ginseng than the men who have not consumed.

Also, they experienced a firmer and long lasting erection after this. Men agreed that the quality of sex improved after taking Ginseng. It is because Ginseng increases the nitric oxide content in the body.

9. Lowers High Blood Pressure​
High blood pressure is a very serious condition. Ginseng helps lower the blood pressure and also hypertension.

Hypertension can lead a person to illness such as kidney failure in extreme conditions. To avoid such situations and ailments, Ginseng acts as a natural cure.

10. Improves Mood and reduces stress​
You can bust your stress with Ginseng as it has some elements that have the capacity to make your mind active and energetic. The Ginsenosides I was talking about earlier, have a major role to play here.

As I mentioned before, American Ginseng has considerable amounts of Rb1 which helps in tranquillising the brain and relieving stress. When you are not stressed, you are happy and cheerful.

Regular consumption of Ginseng tea makes the mind and body full of anti - oxidants that remove the free radicals from your body. Thus, your body is rendered physically and mentally fit.

In today's stressful life, it is very necessary to take a few natural steps that will help your body to manage stress. So, I make sure I consume Ginseng as and when possible.

11. Anti - Inflammatory
Ginseng consists of many vitamins, minerals and anti - oxidants. Vitamins are essential to boost your immune system. The fighter cells, killer cells, and memory cells are produced because of vitamins.

Along with vitamins, the Ginsenosides present in Ginseng, have anti - inflammatory properties. They boost the immune system and give the body, the ability to fight against antigens.

It is very important natural food for reducing and treating nasal itching, sneezing or congestion that happens due to airborne allergens.

12. ​Improves Brain Function
Ginseng is found very effective in improving concentration and cognitive activities. It is not only useful to improve your brain functions in day to day life but also to cure certain brain diseases as well.

It is not only good for people who have decreased or sluggish brain functions but also for healthy people to maintain and improve the functioning. In a study, scientists found that Ginseng is useful in treating diseases like Alzheimer’s as well.

People with Alzheimer’s were given Korean Ginseng root for 12 weeks and then, they showed improvement in their brain functioning. After stopping Ginseng, their brain functioning again fell to the initial level.

So, regular use of Ginseng can improve brain health and concentration.

13. Improves lung function​
Ginseng has a unique ability to increase and improve the functioning of lungs. It can prevent lungs to catch cystic fibrosis. It is a very common lung disorder. It does this by significantly decreasing lung bacteria.
