American Ginseng is the root of a perennial plant in the Araliaceae family, which abounds in the U.S. and Canada. With a sweet-bitter taste and mildly cool nature, it benefits heart, lung and kidney, nourishes vitality and clears excessive heat, balances yin and yang, and treats symptoms such as dyspnea, asthma, fatigue, abnormal thirst and bitter taste, dizziness, fever, ulcer and acne. Besides providing general prevention, American Ginseng can also effectively combat tumors, cancer, coronary heart disease, stroke and eczema.
