Red-Ginseng, processed several times of steaming and drying, has a similar function with Ginseng. Therefore, red-ginseng shows similar side effects with ginseng. Either ginseng or red ginseng is good for maintaining healthy conditions but it is recommended to consult with a doctor of oriental medicine before taking red-ginseng or ginseng.

  1. I am married to an Asian woman, and since we’ve been married, I’ve gotten into the habit of drinking ginseng tea with her parents, who live with us.It takes a little getting used to, but I’ve noticed my overall health has improved.
