The wonder root
August 9th, 2008 -- Posted in Roots | No Comments »Last week I went to a shopping mall to buy a gift for my brother who will be celebrating his birthday next month. I know he would be expecting something great from me so I decided to find the best gift for him as early as possible. As I was looking for the gift I want to give him. I got curious about the advertisement on the LCD mount near a Chinese Health store. The advertisement was all about the wonder root and its benefits as well. The wonder root that it was talking about was Chinese red ginseng.
I heard before about ginseng but I was never quite familiar with its benefits, so curious enough I went inside the shop and asked the Chinese pharmacist about its benefits. He said that Chinese red ginseng has many benefits. It actually helps oxidize your skin giving a smooth and softer feel. It is used by people with diabetes to keep their blood sugar low. And most all red ginsengs serve as adaptogens, aphrodisiacs and nourishing stimulants.
