While ginseng is an energy tonic, most people unfortunately don't know that it's NOT suitable for everyone, regardless of how tired you are, or how badly you need a boost in the bedroom. It can cause adverse reactions and make certain health problems worse. Why? There are different kinds of ginseng, each with a different effect on the body. Panax ginseng, the kind commonly used in China, has a warming effect on the body, while Korean ginseng has a hotter effect. If you already have too much heat in your body, taking ginseng will add more heat and produce symptoms like a flushed face, headache, sore eyes and skin rashes. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), a "hot" body comes from consuming too much heating foods and drinks such as fried foods, curry, chili, chocolate, alcohol and coffee, as well as from excessive emotional stress, frustration and anger.

The main ginseng health benefit is as a qi (vital energy) tonic for people with symptoms of weakness like fatigue, poor appetite, shortness of breath and low resistance to infections, and who don't have excess heat in their bodies. Other ginseng health benefits include enhancement of memory and cognitive functions. Ginseng provides a subtle boost though - not like the quick hit you get from say coffee - and is best taken in small, frequent amounts over several weeks or months, rather than in large, infrequent amounts. Note also that taking ginseng for colds and flu and other infections is not recommended as it feeds the infection - ginseng should NOT be taken when you're ill.
