Eleuthero...the root of this plant helps provide the long term energy and the ability to cope with very difficult stress that is so often needed in many everyday walks of life... a powerful tonic for energy and stress without the word "Ginseng" on the label so its use was successfully "swept under the rug" as a popular, and effective, energy tonic.

For some reason, lately,
Eleutherococcus (Siberian Ginseng) has almost vanished from becoming a subject
when health tonics for energy and stress issues are discussed. It used to be so
common place and for a very good reason; It works!
Why have we almost forgotten about this truly amazing, fast acting, totally safe, and extremely powerful energy booster? I believe a lot of the reason for this is that the FDA had once forced all marketing of this amazing tonic herb to be labeled as "Eleuthero" and to avoid the name of "Siberian Ginseng" on any labels (Siberian Ginseng is much less expensive than Panax Ginseng) Technically this "law" is still in the books.
Many people don't relate to the name "Eleuthero" as a powerful tonic for energy and stress without the word "Ginseng" on the label so its use was successfully "swept under the rug" as a popular energy tonic. Chalk one up for the FDA on this one; however the purpose of this article is to help undo the harm the FDA has done to healthy energy seeking consumers.
