Ginseng is perhaps the most widely recognized plant used in traditional medicine and now plays a major role in the herbal health care market. For more than 2,000 years, various forms have been used medicinally. The name Panax derives from the Greek word for"all healing," and its properties have been so touted. Ginseng root's man-shaped figure (shen-seng means “man-root”) led proponents of the doctrine of signatures, an ancient European herbalist's philosophy, to believe that the root could strengthen any part of the body. Through the ages, the root has been used in the treatment of asthenia, atherosclerosis, blood and bleeding disorders, and colitis, as well as to relieve the effects of aging,cancer,and senility.
