Ginseng is recognized as a natural tonic. It enhances physical and intellectual performance. It is much sought-after for its energizing role in revitalizing the body during periods of prolonged stress. It is also said to have aphrodisiac qualities.

Of course, health professionals recommend a good night's sleep, sporting activities and a healthy, balanced diet to maintain good health, but sometimes our imperatives and our genetics prevent us from being well at certain times of the year. This is the case, for example, during busy periods at work, when stress and fatigue can appear, or at theend of autumn, when the lack of sunshine affects our mood and can provoke temporary bouts of depression... These are all times when taking a suitable dietary supplement can help the body get back into shape.
