Abstract
Recently, by various procedures many researchers had established the fact that medical ginseng (specifically, Korean red ginseng) protects the organism from environmental stresses. Previously, I proposed that the mechanism of anti-stress action of red ginseng depends on keeping homeostasis of the organism, and proved it by basic experiments and clinical investigation.
In this study, I aimed to prove the anti stress effect of red ginseng on the stress of organism induced by exercise. So I requested 6 healthy females to perform an exercise test under red ginseng acute dosage. As a result, I found that red ginseng regulates correctly the reaction of cardiovascular system under exercise; it enhances energy efficiency, and also can be considered to protect the organism from stresses by stabilization of autonomic nerve.
