American Ginseng
Brand: Energique
Dr. Feb's Analysis
Scientific Mechanism
The active compounds in Panax quinquefolius (American Ginseng) are ginsenosides. At a cellular level, these bioactive saponins interact with membrane receptors and ion channels. They modulate the release of stress hormones like cortisol from the HPA axis and influence nitric oxide production for vascular health. This action helps stabilize blood glucose levels and enhances mitochondrial function, providing sustained energy without the jittery side effects associated with caffeine or other stimulants.
