Wisconsin-grown American ginseng is widely considered to be the“Gold Standard" by Chinese consumers. Indeed, one thing most appeals to Chinese consumers is that the fertile, glaciated soils here in central Wisconsin have prominently abundant minerals and nutrient that help create ginsenosides (active ingredients) and have positive effects on the physical body. These effects include the balance of yin and yang of the body, the improvement of immune and metabolic system , the enhancement of mental power, and relief of stress.
