Ginseng reduces cancer-related fatigue
Cancer patients have a great deal of stress, anxiety and fatigue, any reduction of this would be greatly beneficial. Other than exercise, there isn’t a good solution available for these patients. Ginseng has been used as an herbal remedy treatment for noticeably boosting the immune system for ages and now helps fight the chronic fatigue of cancer patients.
In a recent study done by North Central Cancer Treatment Group researchers, based at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota – it has been proven to vastly improve fatigue in cancer patients. Ginseng was found as an effective adaptogen to help protect the body from the stress of drug and radiation.
Many cancer patients face extreme fatigue after diagnosis and during treatment. It’s nice to know there is a natural herbal treatment to combat the psychological and physical effects of cancer drugs and radiation. Ginseng is a nice addition to traditional therapy.
