How to drink American ginseng soaked in water:

1. Prepare 3g of American ginseng slices or rootlets, and 3g of wolfberries. Add an appropriate amount of boiling water, cover and steep for about 5 minutes, then drink. The same ingredients can be steeped repeatedly until no flavor remains.

2. Take 3g of American ginseng slices or rootlets and 0.5g of chrysanthemum, and steep in boiling water. This has the effects of nourishing yin, generating fluids, and clearing heat to improve eyesight. Alternatively, take 3g of American ginseng slices or rootlets and 1g of ophiopogon, add water, bring to a boil, then simmer on low heat for about 1 hour, and drink the liquid. This can enhance the nourishing yin, generating fluids, and moistening the lung effects of American ginseng.

3. Place American ginseng in a cup, pour in boiling water (water must be boiling), then cover and let it steep for 5 to 10 minutes before drinking. You can drink it throughout the day, adding more water when it runs out, basically one cup per day. Finally, you can also eat the American ginseng pieces.

Drinking American ginseng soaked in water does not affect its efficacy. The medicinal effects of American ginseng slices are released slowly, so drinking it steeped in water allows for gradual consumption and better therapeutic results. The efficacy will not be significantly reduced! The main components of American ginseng slices include ginsenosides, volatile oils, proteins, amino acids, polysaccharides, nucleic acids, peptides, vitamins, and trace elements, most of which are water-soluble and can be well dissolved in water, thus being effectively absorbed by the body!
