Ginseng is considered to be a magical herb. It has some unique medicinal values which can help in curing many types of illnesses. Recent research has shown that the herb can also help in the weight loss. Here are a little more details about the effectiveness of the herb in weight loss.
The working principle behind the theory that ginseng helps induce weight loss is the fact that ginseng interferes with the blood sugar levels of our body. When there is less sugar in the blood, the body automatically produces less insulin. This eventually means that thee body won't store this excess sugar inside our body in the form of fat.
Ginseng is a powerful herb. You need to introduce it into your daily diet in very small quantities. Buy ginseng from the local health food store. It would be commonly available in the Chinese herb section, and can be obtained in the form of capsules or tea-packets. Apart from the regular variety of ginseng, there are also some specific varieties of scientifically-tested ginseng that can be obtained.
No matter how much quantity you buy, it is recommended that you only have about 200 mg of it on a daily basis. That should be enough to initiate weight loss in you. You body too would be able to tolerate this amount and there also won't be any side-effects as well.
However, in some cases symptoms like insomnia, skin rashes, diarrhea and menstrual irregularities have been observed. So keep a look out for these side-effects and stop taking the herb if they appear.
Once your body starts tolerating it, you can increase the quantity of ginseng from 200 mg to 300 mg. This should ideally happen around two weeks after you started taking ginseng.
Ginseng would increase your energy level as well as your stamina. Hence, you should also increase the amount of effort that you spend exercising. This would increase the rate of weight loss from your body. It would feel lighter and therefore more active. Hence, longer spells of exercising should not be too taxing for you.
A time may come when you can try out having ginseng in your tea. If you have time on your hands and have the inclination to prepare ginseng tea, then that is the best thing to do. However, you may not like the taste of it at first. Despite that, try not to add sugar to it. That would defeat the very purpose of having ginseng. If you really need to improve its taste, add zero calorie sugar.
Ginseng, thus it seems, can help you lose weight. Further, it would induce weight loss in a completely natural manner, without costing you a bomb. So go and lose weight through the medium of ginseng.
