Holy cow.

This article is a mess. It violates NOR, NPOV, and verifiability in multiple sections, most especially "Modern Science." Undiskedste (talk) 03:25, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Blade Runner

How about including the section Popular Culture mentioning that, in Blade Runner, Deckard orders ginseng to relieve stress from having killed a replicant — Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.54.221.157 (talk) 05:49, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, merge it

It's a fairly short article. But the thing is you would have to merge the medicial benefits with the main "ginseng" article. Problem with this is that Korean ginseng purportedly has different medical effects. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wyattherb (talk • contribs) 13:40, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

-It appears the cited study only looked at Panax Ginseng, and as such, should not be generalized to all ginseng. Additionally, I have been unable to find any evidence that Panax Ginseng has had documented interactions with any antidepressants other than MAOI's. Since there is great diversity among antidepressants, this too should be specified, and not generalized to all AD's.
