Panax Ginseng

Panax Ginseng (PG) is he best known of traditional Chinese medicinal plants - used especially by older people as a tonic & aphrodisiac (hormonal sex factor). PG exerts a favorable effect on learning, memory & intellectual performance; & offsets the effects of mental fatigue & stress (adaptogen). Russian & Japanese researchers have demonstrated these effects in numerous studies using a variety of behavioral methods.

How does PG work to boost mental stamina & performance?
" Fatigue develops because of depletion of glycogen (storage form of sugar). PG enhances breakdown of fatty acids to energy, thereby sparing glycogen stores.
" PG's anti-stress effects are due to its effect on the adrenal glands - which maintain balance of many bodily functions during stress by secreting several important hormones. These adrenal hormones bind directly to brain tissues to increase mental activities during stress.
" PG also acts through the nervous system control mechanisms to adjust metabolic & functional systems that maintain the body during the challenge of stress - similar to how a thermostat maintains temperature (adaptogen). PG stimulates the central nervous systems (CNS) when used in small amounts, & relaxes the CNS when used in large amounts.
" PG promotes & stimulates Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) - which plays a key role for the survival, regeneration & regulation of brain neurons & nerve fibers. As NGF levels typically decline with age, this finding by Japanese scientists (1980) presents exciting potential for inhibiting ageing's effect on brain function.
" A key stage in memory formation is the opening of membrane channels through which calcium ions flow. With age, the mechanisms that open & close these calcium channels become defective, & so calcium accumulates at dangerous levels inside the cells. Ginseng contains an agent that counters this effect, thus helping to improve memory function.
