For friends, it's like going to see a doctor in a hurry. I heard it's effective, just like trying. As for whether drinking American ginseng can really improve sleep, I think it depends on what causes this insomnia. Only symptomatic use can have an effect.
Generally speaking, the main causes of insomnia are as follows:
1, environmental factors
You know, to sleep well, the sleeping environment is very important. For example, before going to bed, the surrounding environment is quiet, there is no noise, and the light remains dark. The temperature is neither too hot nor too cold. Only when the temperature is moderate can we sleep peacefully. But if we go to bed every night, it is noisy outside, and even some people are talking loudly or singing, but the lights are still on, and the temperature is hot and cold, these bad factors will interfere with sleep, eventually leading to insomnia and poor sleep.
2. Psychological factors
It is that our hearts are stimulated by some things and we think too much. For example, some troubles at work during the day, and the work was not well done and was scolded by the leader; Or some troubles in life, just quarreling with your lover and so on. , will cause their inner thinking too much, resulting in anxiety, fear, tension and other stress behaviors, affecting the quality of sleep, resulting in transient insomnia.
3. Mental factors
This mainly refers to the deterioration of sleep quality caused by neurasthenia, which makes it difficult to fall asleep and easy to wake up, seriously affecting sleep quality. For example, some patients with depression, Alzheimer's disease, anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder will suffer from insomnia to some extent due to mental factors.
4. Causes of diseases
Many diseases in clinic can cause insomnia, such as arthritis, advanced cancer, renal failure, gastrointestinal diseases and other diseases, which will naturally affect the quality of sleep. In addition, there are also some cases of insomnia and dreaminess caused by insufficient oxygen supply during night sleep due to heart and lung diseases.
5, yin deficiency and fire flourishing
Chinese medicine believes that if a person's internal deficiency fire is too strong, it will lead to the failure of heart and kidney, then it will be asthenic heat and fatigue. For example, if the heart is strong, it will disturb the mind, leading to sleepless nights and easy insomnia.
From the various reasons of insomnia, if insomnia is caused by yin deficiency and excessive fire, there is heat in the body, which leads to mental fatigue and heat disturbing the mind, then it is effective to improve sleep quality with American ginseng.
Why do you say that? Because in traditional Chinese medicine, American ginseng is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine that can treat yin deficiency and excessive fire, clear deficiency fire, deficiency heat, remove annoyance, produce fluid and quench thirst.
According to the dictionary of traditional Chinese medicine, American ginseng is sweet, slightly bitter and cool, and enters the heart, lungs and kidneys. Function: benefit lung and yin, clear deficiency fire, promote fluid production and quench thirst. Treat lung deficiency, chronic cough, blood loss, dry throat, thirst, asthenic fever and fatigue.
Therefore, it can be seen from here that American ginseng has a good therapeutic effect on yin deficiency and restless mind caused by heart-kidney disharmony. Drinking proper amount of American ginseng can clear away deficiency and purging fire, especially insomnia caused by excessive heart fire and kidney fire, and play a role in clearing away heat and calming the nerves. God's tranquility naturally makes it easy to fall asleep and can effectively improve the quality of sleep.
In addition, pharmacological research also found that American ginseng has a sedative effect on the brain. Therefore, drinking American ginseng tea properly before going to bed at night can play a role in regulating our brains, calming our brains and helping us fall asleep quickly.
Generally speaking, American ginseng has a certain effect on improving sleep, mainly for insomnia caused by yin deficiency and excessive fire, but has little effect on insomnia caused by other reasons.
When we have insomnia, we still need to go to the hospital for examination to see if it is caused by mental factors, psychological factors or disease factors. In the treatment of insomnia, we can not always rely on sleeping pills to promote sleep. This is a temporary solution, but it is not a permanent solution. Although I can sleep at night, the quality of sleep is not good, and I still have no good spirit during the day. In order to effectively improve insomnia, it is still necessary to see Chinese medicine. In the treatment of insomnia, Chinese medicine has its own unique side. As long as it is treated by a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, it will have a good effect.
Hello, I'm Dr. Li from Jinan, and I'm glad to answer your question.
The effects of American ginseng are: benefiting qi and nourishing yin, clearing away heat and promoting fluid production.
The main symptoms of treatment are deficiency of both qi and yin; Syndrome of lung qi deficiency and lung yin deficiency; Fever, qi deficiency, body fluid injury, thirst and thirst quenching.
If we say that improving sleep is also due to insomnia caused by yin deficiency and excessive fire or deficiency of both qi and yin. Not everyone is suitable. The specific reasons for insomnia still need to be clarified. Everyone's situation is different, and you can't blindly follow the trend.
There are many factors leading to insomnia:
Emotion, anxiety, environment, stress, psychological or spiritual factors, spleen and stomach disharmony, liver and gallbladder fire, physical diseases and so on.
Insomnia often seriously affects the normal work and life during the day, so it is recommended to seek medical advice in time. Therefore, if you have serious insomnia, it is recommended to see a doctor, treat it according to syndrome differentiation and treat the symptoms.
There are also many ways to treat insomnia, such as prescribing traditional Chinese medicine based on syndrome differentiation, acupuncture treatment, psychological counseling, or combination of acupuncture and medicine.
In addition, I have to overcome bad living and sleeping habits and create a comfortable sleeping environment.
Restrict or prohibit daytime naps. Listen to some soft and soothing music before going to bed to relax.
During the day, you can exercise properly, strengthen exercise and enhance your physique.
After drinking for about half a year, I didn't feel anything.
If you are restless, even if you drink Chang 'e's osmanthus wine, you can't sleep well. External material is not everything, the key to everything is yourself.
The main function of American ginseng is to clear away heat and toxic materials, nourish yin, and also have a certain effect on sleep, but the effect will not be obvious. Long-term drinking is not recommended. Insomnia is mainly caused by psychological burden and excessive pressure. Insomnia should be self-regulated, and listening to light music and massage before going to bed can be improved.
American ginseng has a calming effect and helps sleep.
But you need to know why you can't sleep, find the reason and prescribe the right medicine.
Some people suffer from insomnia for psychological reasons, while others suffer from insomnia for physical reasons.
So what caused you?
What is terrible is not insomnia, but fear of insomnia. Some people are more anxious and prone to insomnia when they think that they will suffer from insomnia every day.
So we need to relax and not dwell on sleeping. Sleeping is a common thing.
Relax, drop everything and go to bed!

It can only be said that American ginseng is helpful to some people who sleep.
American ginseng is called "American ginseng" because it is produced in the United States (formerly known as Citigroup). During the period of 1975, Shaanxi and Jilin were successfully introduced, mainly producing Northeast China, Shandong and other provinces.
Panax quinquefolium is a high-grade health care product suitable for men, women and children, which has the effects of invigorating qi and nourishing blood, nourishing yin and tonifying kidney, strengthening spleen and nourishing stomach, delaying aging and beauty beauty.
Modern medical research has proved that American ginseng has the functions of anti-fatigue, anti-aging, anti-shock, improving thinking, improving memory, regulating endocrine, enhancing human immunity and improving cardiovascular function.
If you want to know whether American ginseng can help people with insomnia, you must first understand the mechanism of sleep.
How does sleep happen? Huangdi Neijing says, "Yang enters Yin, causing drowsiness". It means that yang converges, enters yin blood and falls asleep.
As far as the whole sleep process of human body is concerned, "Yang entering Yin" includes two aspects: one is the process of Yang entering Yin, and the other is the state maintained by Yang entering Yin.
When you are too strong to be gathered by others, or insufficient to be gathered by others, you will suffer from irritability and insomnia, which is called "Yang does not enter Yin".
"Syndrome Differentiation and Treatment" is the biggest feature of Chinese medicine, and American ginseng is mainly helpful for insomnia people with "yin deficiency and fire flourishing".
Because of yin deficiency, this kind of people can't converge the yang when they should sleep, which is manifested as dry throat, thirst, deficiency heat, burnout and other symptoms.
For this kind of insomnia patients, taking some American ginseng is very beneficial.
People who are not suitable for taking American ginseng are cool and slightly bitter. Compared with hot ginseng and red ginseng, American ginseng is milder and more suitable for nourishing the body on weekdays.
Although American ginseng is mild in medicinal properties, it is not suitable for everyone. Chinese medicine believes that people with yang deficiency, exogenous pathogenic factors and damp heat should not take it; Yang deficiency, stomach cold and dampness or constitution deficiency and cold are prohibited.
When taking American ginseng, you should also be careful not to eat radish, because radish is not fresh;
American ginseng should not be drunk with tea, and tannic acid in tea can combine with the effective components of American ginseng, so that its absorption is reduced.
Administration method of American ginseng: soaking method: take pieces of American ginseng in your mouth, chew them carefully after they become soft, and swallow them slowly with body fluids, 2-3 pieces per mouth, 2-3 times a day.
Powder soaking method: stick American ginseng into fine powder, take 3~5g each time, and brew with boiling water.
Steaming method: put 2-5g pieces of American ginseng into a porcelain bowl, cover it, soak it in proper amount of cold water for 3-5h, then steam it in a pot for 20-30min, and take it half an hour before breakfast.
Egg steaming method: 5g of American ginseng powder is mixed with 1 broken eggs and steamed.
Cooking method: Put 5g pieces of American ginseng into vegetable soup and cook together, and eat soup, vegetables and ginseng once a day 1 time.
Method of porridge cooking: Take 50g of rice and add water to cook porridge. After the porridge is cooked, add 5 grams of American ginseng and stir until it boils.
Preservation of American ginseng American ginseng should be stored in a cool and dry place, and attention should be paid to prevent mildew and moth-eaten in spring and autumn. If it absorbs water or is eaten by insects, it can be dried to kill insects, cooled and then packaged for preservation. If it is moldy, it can be dried in the sun and wiped off with dry chaff while it is hot.
These preservation methods are recommended:
Dry preservation method: put a proper amount of desiccant, such as quicklime, charcoal, etc. in the bottom of closed cylinders, barrels and boxes, then wrap them in paper for dinner and seal them to prevent insects from eating and mildew. Ensure that the desiccant does not directly contact ginseng.
Low-temperature preservation method: wrap the dried ginseng in plastic bags and put it in the refrigerator. Can prevent American ginseng from getting damp in the refrigerator, and can also avoid the odor of articles in the refrigerator or the loss of medicinal taste. If the American ginseng is not completely dried, it should be dried first and then put in the refrigerator.
Sun exposure method: don't throw away the American ginseng with insects. You can knock out the eggs, urine and worms gently first, and then expose them to the sun or bake them at 50℃ to kill the eggs.
My wife works in a Chinese medicine hospital and suffers from insomnia for a long time. Later, according to my understanding, I got some Chinese medicine and ointment made of longan and told her that it was a prescription prescribed by an old Chinese doctor. She ate it intermittently for about half a month. Now I think she falls asleep faster than me.
It varies from person to person.
