This month's herb has been getting a lot of attention lately. American ginseng or Panax quinquefolius is native to North America and its counterpart Panax ginseng is native to Asia. Ginseng is one of the most popular herbs in Traditional Chinese Medicine and may be the most widely studied herb ever. Herbalists have long known the benefits of this incredible plant and it is exciting to see scientific studies backing up its use. Ginseng is studied for fatigue, cognition, immune support, and more.

How we use it-
We use American Ginseng in NRG
NRG is our delicious caffeine and sugar free energy booster. It works fast and can be added to water, juice, or smoothies. We've even had families make it into popsicles or ice cubes for hot summer days. This is a carefully crafted formula we worked with a Chinese Medicine doctor to create and our customers have been loving it for over 20 years.
NRG is our June 2023 special of the month and is 10% off all month long!
