简要总结
Will a unique form of ginseng be clinically helpful in those with chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia?
详细描述
Ginseng has been shown in earlier studies to help fatigue in a number of conditions. But because of overharvesting, most ginseng is no longer have optimal levels of the active ginsenosides. A new technique has been developed to restore the level of active ginseng components those found in the wild ginseng used in earlier studies. This is available in a form called HRG 80 Red Ginseng.
The study is an open pilot study to explore whether this treatment would be helpful for improving clinical function and symptomatology in chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. Current clinical experience is suggesting that it may be.
