Ginseng Root (Panax)

Ginseng Root (Panax) is the thick, fleshy root of Panax ginseng traditionally used in East Asian cuisines and herbal medicine as a tonic and adaptogen; it appears in soups, teas and broths and is prized for its bitter-sweet, warming flavor. Nutritionally it is used sparingly rather than as a bulk food, and provides modest micronutrients such as 8mg of vitamin C per 100g along with small amounts of fiber and protein. It contains characteristic bioactive compounds called ginsenosides that are studied for antioxidant and adaptogenic effects, and is generally regarded as a health-supporting culinary herb when used in typical culinary amounts.
