I forgot to mention the side effect actually.
Worth trying by the way.
But most people report bad anxiety, difficulty sleepy and difficulty relaxing. Potentially making the ME worse not better.
Saying that worth a try. I used to take Siberian ginseng. But I did read that Siberian is more immune stimulating than red ginseng. So if that's true then depending on how your ME is. One or the other might be better.
Ginsengs effects are cumulative. Hence the 5 week cycling. However if you get used to the energising effects you could do too much and this is why I don't take it anymore. My ebv reactivates now under very little stress. Ginseng sort of hypes the body up so it can do more, but ebv seems to love this. Mind you if it's actisting my immune system ebv would wake up anyway. Which isn't a bad thing if you can kill it in the process. That's what Joshua's protocol is supposed to do and I swear it has worked well for me.
But yes even so just be careful with ginseng. Adaptogens are very strong herbs. They could make some dormant viral or bacterial infections worse and others better. That's really the bottom line I guess.
