What every man should have in his medicine cabinet.

What Every Man Should Have In His Medicine Cabinet

Herbal remedies seek to nourish, restore, and balance body functions that have been bruised by the ups and downs of daily life. Symptoms of “bruised” body functions (typically thought of as aging) range from arthritis to fatigue to cognitive decline, and can take their toll on anyone and everyone.

These three versatile herbs, used for centuries in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine, have a variety of health benefits for both men and women. However, they work in several ways to address health issues of top concern to men, such as erectile dysfunction (ED) and high blood pressure, and I believe they should be a part of every man’s long-term plan for overall health.

GINSENG

With wide-ranging action, ginseng (Panax ginseng), also called Asian ginseng, has been shown in human studies to have an anti-stress effect; improve physical and mental performance, memory, and reaction time; and to enhance mood. Ginseng increases physical working capacity in humans in many ways, including by stimulating the central nervous system, and regulating blood pressure and glucose levels. A 2015 study found that active constituents in ginseng had significant benefit for ED in men with diabetes.

In another study, a preparation of Asian ginseng, vitamins, and minerals, was tested among people who complained of daily fatigue. Those taking the supplement demonstrated improved energy, better concentration, and less anxiety.
