Stamina Benefits of Ginseng

Ginseng appears to improve stamina and endurance by exerting an effect on the respiratory system and also on energy metabolism.

Ginseng stamina

A placebo controlled trial on 15 young healthy men found a significant reduction in ventilation during submaximal exercise following ingestion of 1 gram American ginseng powder. The results suggest that ginseng can increase respiratory endurance and support the observation of Forgo (1983) that American ginseng improves cardiovascular endurance during submaximal work.

In a Canadian study, injecting rats with ginsenosides Rg1 or Rb1 significantly prolonged aerobic exercise endurance of non-trained animals. Both plasma free fatty acid (FFA) and glucose levels were raised during exercise. Liver and muscle glycogen levels were higher in treated animals after exhaustive exercise. The author hypothesised that both Rg1 and Rb1 altered fuel homeostasis during prolonged exercise by increasing FFA utilisation over glucose for cellular energy demands.
