Solgar Korean Ginseng Root Extract properties are:

• ADAPTOGENIC - Korean Ginseng increases tolerance to various stressors and helps normalise the way in which the body responds to stress triggers and acts to regulat the manufacture and secretion of adrenal hormones. It also strengthens the adrenal glands themselves, which is especially important to those suffering from chronic stress.
• CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM STRENGTHENING EFFECT - Its adaptogenic activity provides non-specific support for the central nervous system, which may help restore proper neurological function after long term stress.
• IMMUNE TONIC - Studies show that ginseng enhances white blood cell activity, thus providing support to a compromised immune system. In addition, as stress suppresses immune function, the adaptogenic properties of this herb would even further promote resistance to infection.
• MILD STIMULANT - Korean Ginseng appears to be the most stimulating of all types of ginseng, which is in contrast to the calming effect associated with American Ginseng. Potential applications of Solgar Korean Ginseng Root Extract: Stress - mental/physical/environmental Fatigue Weak immunity Physical endurance during exercise Lack of mental alertness
