5. Ginseng Can Reduce the Stress Response
Ginseng treatment has been shown to help increase resistance to stress and aging by affecting the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis. Suffice to say that this can help to lower the production of cortisol during the stress response triggered by the sympathetic nervous system.
In other words, you will be more likely to feel calm and at ease during stressful situations and less likely to see cumulative damage to your body over time as a result of chronic stress. This is a huge issue for many people in today’s busy schedule and as such, it’s one of the most important and beneficial effects of ginseng.
