As early as the time of Emperor Huang, the first emperor of China, about four thousand years ago, the fantastic benefits of ginseng was already well known. The most ancient Chinese medical book, 'The Herbal Book of Shen Nong', recorded that ginseng has the ability to enhance the internal organs of our body, to calm nerves, repel negative elements, enhance eye-sight, promote cheerfulness and improve a person's intelligence. Taken on a long-term basis, ginseng improves agility and enhances longevity.

He further wrote that ginseng is a very effective tonic especially suited for men and women with weak constitutions.
