Treats Symptoms of Menopause and Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS)
Ginseng is a natural remedy for menopause and PMS.
The root has many beneficial effects on the body, including helping to balance hormones, strengthen the immune system, boost energy levels and increase blood flow to the brain. These qualities make it an effective natural remedy for menopause and PMS symptoms.
For example, in menopause, research on ginseng shows that it helps reduce hot flashes by regulating estrogen levels in women who are going through menopause. It also has been found to improve mood swings associated with this time of life (3), making it easier for women to cope with their changing bodies without feeling overwhelmed or depressed by what’s happening inside them.
For PMS (premenstrual syndrome), one study on PMS sufferers using Korean red ginseng supplements over eight weeks showed significant improvement in symptoms, including headache and irritability, compared with subjects taking placebo pills during those two months.
