| I was persuaded by a workmate to start taking Ginseng. Never even thought about it in Korea.....It is wonderful! I highly recommend it, especially to anyone lacking in well-being |

Korean ginseng has actually been proven to be some of the best. |

actually, Siberian eluethero is supposed to be superior and recommended by many
I find it keeps me very healthy (along with other herbs in a tincture) and I am able to "get up and do the things that need to be done" (as I am an older teacher)
it used to be called Siberian eleuthero ginseng but they had to drop the ginseng
anyway, other ginsengs, I think, are not allowed to be imported to S. Korea - cause, of course, they want you to buy theirs |

| What's the best way to take it? I usually just buy the little bottles at the corner shop. |

| I hope you're not 'hot-bodied' or whatever the Haaniwon term is. The two don't mix. You sweat easily? |

crescent is right, one should check what it does to you, especially blood pressure, blood sugar, etc.
just google "side effects of red panax ginseng" |

How old are you? No offence but does 'get up etc' mean shaggin? Cos they definitely make you more amorous.
If not and you just mean energy thats true to, I was pretty monged out and stressed before I started taking them.
There is a story bout a Korean actor who spends �1500 a week on Ginseng root.
It's good for your health and minimal side effects. |

No, I am not referring to sexual activity, though that is an effect of the ginseng for men,
I am speaking of energy, and immune system/resistance to germs; I shall be 60 this week. |

hey rusty,
there was no offense taken and I totally agree with you
yes, it also helps me get moving the morning and helps me with stress as I can't take much anymore
it is incredible stuff along with other herbs, but I am speaking of the SIBERIAN ELEUTHERO which I get in/from the U.S.
good to hear your comments |

It especially helps in a job like this where you cant really afford to be slacking off for too long, keeps you pepped.
Happy days
Anyway im off out |
