Part of the plant: roots. Botanical name: Panax Ginseng. Main properties: White ginseng and red ginseng do not refer to different species, but simply to a different growth time and processing process. White ginseng, pure and simply dried, has regulatory properties for well-being, while red ginseng has rather invigorating qualities, “boosting” performance and vitality. An invigorating plant par excellence, it stimulates the immune system, fights physical and intellectual fatigue and helps convalescence. Precautions for use: not recommended for people with high blood pressure, hormone-dependent cancer, children, and pregnant and nursing women.
