Ginseng is a high-quality traditional Chinese medicine that replenishes vitality. Drinking ginseng wine not only calms the mind and improves intelligence, but also enhances our body's immune system. So how do we drink ginseng wine? Let's introduce it below.

【Method of making ginseng wine】

Ingredients: 30g ginseng, 1.2 liters of white wine.

Procedure: Sew a bag with gauze that is the same size as the ginseng, put the ginseng into the bag, and sew it closed. Soak the bag in the wine for several days. Then pour it into a clay pot and cook over low heat until the wine is reduced to 500-700ml. Pour the wine into a bottle, seal it, cool it, and store it for later use.

Effect: Ginseng wine can replenish vitality, strengthen the spleen, produce saliva, relieve thirst, calm the mind, and improve intelligence. It is suitable for patients with chronic qi deficiency, insufficient spleen and lungs, poor appetite, shortness of breath upon exertion, spontaneous sweating and weakness, pale complexion, weak pulse, thirst due to fluid injury, diabetes, neurosis, insomnia with frequent dreams, fatigue, palpitations, impotence, and other conditions.

【Benefits of ginseng wine】

1. Calms the mind and improves concentration

Drinking ginseng wine can effectively promote physical health. This is because ginseng contains certain saponins, which can enter the body and enhance the health of the central nervous system, ultimately eliminating physical and mental fatigue.

2. Boosts immune system

Ginseng has excellent health benefits and can strengthen the immune system when consumed scientifically.

3. Protects cardiovascular health

If the body experiences myocardial hypoxia, arrhythmia, or myocardial oxidation, ginseng wine can be used for treatment.

【Precautions for making ginseng wine】

1. Alcohol content should not be too high

Many people think that the higher the alcohol content when making ginseng wine, the better, as this can dissolve the active substances in ginseng more quickly. However, this idea is incorrect.

If the alcohol content is too high, although it can dissolve substances that are soluble in alcohol quickly, it is not conducive to the dissolution of water-soluble substances, which will greatly reduce the efficacy of the medicinal wine.

2. Ceramic or glass containers

The vessel used for brewing ginseng wine must be a ceramic jar or a glass container, as this can accelerate the aging process of the wine. Plastic and metal containers should not be used as they may release toxic substances and cause toxic reactions.
