As an energy and mood booster, I will begin using ginseng. I'm hesitant to use stimulants and things such as caffiene. But ginseng has been used for centuries and there is much research behind it. The two types of ginseng that I've purchased are Siberian Ginseng and Korean Ginseng. I will be taking a little ovef 1500 mg of each per day. One thing about ginseng is that it has to be cycled. I will use it for 6 weeks, then take 2 weeks off.
I bought my ginseng from the Vitamin Shoppe. You really have to be an informed consumer when you go to the Vitamin Shoppe, The prices on the web ooften differ a lot compared to the prices in the retail shops. The retail shops will honor the cheaper prices of the web though. The one I go to has a computer w/ internet connectiom. So, I can just show the sales associate price rather than bring in print outs.
