Siberian Ginseng is completely non-toxic, reduces the alarm stage of the stress response, helps the body to use nutrients more efficiently, and provides greater stores of available energy. Adaptogens are closely related to hormonal and immune responses.[1] Siberian ginseng is somewhat different in appearance than its Asian or American counterparts. The Siberian ginseng bush grows between 3-10 feet high, with a main stem and long branches covered by thorns.[2] Siberian ginseng, in my experience, produces cumulative results: The longer you use it, the better it works. It tends to kick in after 6 weeks or so, and the most significant results can be seen after 6 months of use.[3]


Siberian Ginseng  is a root that has been used as medicine amongst Native Americans and the peoples of China and Korea for thousands of years. The herb is traditionally used as preventative medicine, but has exceptional therapeutic benefits for several medical conditions.[4] Siberian Ginseng has been used as a natural sedative for centuries. And, today, athletes love it because it promotes physical stamina and endurance.[5] Siberian Ginseng is also promoted as an energy-booster in many circles. [6]

Siberian Ginseng contains saponins which inhibit the growth of cancer cells and can convert diseased cells into normal ones. It gives the body a better ability to cope with stress by normalizing body functions and exerting beneficial effects on the adrenal glands (the ones that secrete stress-fighting hormones).[7] Siberian ginseng has these effects because it is an adaptogen, a substance that helps the body fight against the effects of just about any kind of stress. Although currently unproven, the effects of stress may be as simple as headaches or colds, or they may also be more serious, such as memory loss, heart disease, cancer, arthritis, and accelerated aging.[8] Siberian Ginseng is different than other ginsengs. It can be used by both men and women.[9]

Siberian ginseng, also known as eleuthero, has been used for centuries in Eastern countries, including China and Russia. Although a distant relative of American ( Panax quinquefolius ) and Asian ginseng ( Panax ginseng ), with some overlap in its uses, Siberian ginseng is a distinct plant with different active chemical components.[10] Siberian Ginseng is not a 'true' Ginseng as it is only remotely related to the 'true' Ginsengs (such as the well-known Panax Ginseng). However, it is commonly regarded as such for its similar adaptogenic properties.[11] Siberian ginseng stimulates the adrenal glands, which helps eliminate stress hormones from the body. It also seems to tone the uterus and is beneficial for relieving various menstrual and menopausal symptoms.[12]
