American Ginseng Extract is native to Canada, eastern US, Wisconsin, and China. American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) is closely related to Korean Ginseng (Panax ginseng) - American Ginseng is more appropriate for hot weather conditions as its energy is more cooling (although both are sweet and slightly bitter).

American Ginseng Extract can be used during the colder seasons, as they have a more warming nature. Or, in other words, American Ginseng is more sedative & relaxing, and increases "yin" energy, in contrast to Korean Ginseng (Panax) which is more stimulating & invigorating, and increases the "yang" energy. The part of the plants used is the root. American Ginseng's known active constituents include glycosides (ginsenosides), saponins, and phytosterol. 

Action:

1) American Ginseng has been traditionally used by the American Indians as a general tonic, as a natural restorative for the weak & wounded.

2) American Ginseng Extract is also used to help the mind (mental alertness & retention). The word, ginseng, means 'essence of the earth in the form of a man' due to the human-like shape of some ginseng roots.
