Ginseng Root Energy
Caffeine sensitive.. Should I be alright?
I drank a Guru energy drink, (1629mg: Guarana seed extract, Echinacea flower extract, Panax ginseng root extract, Ginkgo biloba leaf extract.) Than while at work with it being so hectic, I forgot I drank it and went out on lunch and had a huge iced coffee drink. I am caffeine sensitive and am now very light headed, it’s hard for me to breath out, my pulse feels very fast, and my chest hurts. I feel a little better now, but I still have 2 1/2 hours of work left. I work in a fast paced environment, what should I do?
It may cause you to ask the same question repetitively, in violation of Yahoo! Answers Community Guidelines http://answers.yahoo.com/info/community_guidelines
It says:
Misusing Answers
Don’t create multiple accounts to troll or otherwise violate these guidelines or the Yahoo! Terms of Service. Don’t post things that are incomprehensible or in the wrong language, and don’t post the same question over and over again.
Notice the last sentence:
“don’t post the same question over and over again.”
Now I also have to wonder this.
IF you are “Caffeine sensitive”
Why would you buy an energy drink let alone drink it, then have “a huge iced coffee drink”
Sounds bogus!
But just in case read this:
What makes energy drinks bad?
12 spoons of sugar… that’s bad
200 calories… bad
Guarana… tisk tisk
Good for a short jittery burst then a debilitating crash!
All energy drinks are Dangerous!

I know someone personally that had to be taken to the hospital E.R. after only drinking one (1)
You are just as safe playing russian roulette!

Modern Science and Ginseng
Ginseng is a traditional Chinese medicine that is been used by them for over 5000 years. Beside its usage in China, this herb is used in North America as well. The various medicinal products offered by Ginseng are made using its root. One of the ancients books say that it was been used on people for preventing certain illness rather than on people who were suffering from any ailment. By both Chinese and American herbalist, this health supplement is used for keeping mind and body to be in balance.
Classically, it was used as an herb for sustenance of life & preservation of good health before the commencement of any disease. It helped in providing immunity to human beings to fight against diseases. Some even say that Ginseng was traditionally used for effectively treating type II diabetes, and libido.
In modern times, things have changed and due many studies conducted one finds it difficult to cross check the medicinal advantages of ginseng. But still it is been promoted as an adaptogen. Adapatogen is basically the natural herb product that assists in growing the body’s resistance to stress. Further it has the anticarcinogenic and antioxidant properties that have helped in reducing the occurrence / onset of cancers, prevent cell damage and much more.
Seeing the benefits of Ginseng, manufacturers have started using this product in Energy Drinks, tea, and functional foods. Further it is available in form of capsules as well (for doses please refer the pack you are buying). If you don’t want to have these things, then Ginseng roots are also available at economical prices. It can be steamed twice with chicken meat as a soup.
