Ginseng ni umuzi umaze imyaka ibihumbi ukoreshwa nk'umuti w'ibintu byose kuva ku munaniro kugeza ku kudakora neza k'uburemba. Mu by'ukuri hari ubwoko bubiri bwa ginseng - ginseng yo muri Aziya na ginseng yo muri Amerika - ariko byombi birimo ibintu byitwa ginsenosides bifitiye akamaro ubuzima.
Ginseng ishobora kongera ubudahangarwa bw'umubiri wawe no gufasha umubiri wawe kurwanya indwara nk'ibicurane cyangwa ibicurane.
“Biragaragara ko umuzi wa Ginseng ufite imbaraga zikomeye zo kurwanya indwara ziterwa na virusi,” ibi ni ibyatangajwe na Keri Gans, MD, inzobere mu mirire mu kazi kabo ku giti cyabo. Ariko, ubushakashatsi bwinshi busanzwe bukorerwa muri laboratwari ku nyamaswa cyangwa ku turemangingo tw’abantu.
Ubushakashatsi bwakozwe ku bantu bwo mu 2020 bwagaragaje ko abantu bafata ibinini bibiri bya ginseng ku munsi bari bafite amahirwe make yo kurwara ibicurane cyangwa ibicurane ku kigero cya 50% ugereranyije n'abafashe placebo.
Niba usanzwe urwaye, gufata ginseng biracyagufasha — ubushakashatsi bumwe bwagaragaje koigikomoka kuri ginsengbyagabanyije igihe cy'uburwayi kuva ku minsi 13 kugeza kuri 6.
Ginseng ishobora kugufasha kurwanya umunaniro no kugutera imbaraga kuko irimo ibintu byitwa ginsenosides bikora mu buryo butatu bw'ingenzi:
Isuzuma ryakozwe mu 2018 ku nyigo 10 ryagaragaje ko ginseng ishobora kugabanya umunaniro, ariko abanditsi bavuga ko hakenewe ubushakashatsi bwinshi.
Abby Gellman, umutetsi akaba n'inzobere mu mirire mu mwuga wigenga, yagize ati: “Biragaragara ko Ginseng ifite ubushobozi bwo kurinda ubwonko bushobora gufasha mu kugabanya ubushobozi bwo gutekereza no kwangirika kw'indwara zo mu bwonko nka Alzheimer.”
Mu bushakashatsi buto bwakozwe mu 2008, abarwayi ba Alzheimer bafataga garama 4.5 z'ifu ya ginseng buri munsi mu gihe cy'ibyumweru 12. Aba barwayi basuzumwaga buri gihe ibimenyetso bya Alzheimer, kandi abafataga ginseng bari bafite ibimenyetso byo mu mutwe byazamutse cyane ugereranije n'abafashe placebo.
Ginseng ishobora kandi kugira akamaro mu bwenge ku bantu bazima. Mu bushakashatsi buto bwakozwe mu 2015, abashakashatsi bahaye abantu bari mu kigero cyo hagati 200 mg yaigikomoka kuri ginsenghanyuma bagapima kwibuka kwabo kw'igihe gito. Ibisubizo byagaragaje ko abantu bakuru bafashe ginseng bagize amanota meza cyane kurusha abafashe placebo.
Ariko, ubundi bushakashatsi ntibwagaragaje inyungu nini. Inyigo nto cyane yo mu 2016 yasanze gufata 500mg cyangwa 1.000mg bya ginseng bitazamuye amanota ku bipimo bitandukanye byo mu mutwe.
Hans yagize ati: “Ubushakashatsi n’ubumenyi bya Ginseng bigaragaza ubushobozi, ariko ntibirakemezwa ijana ku ijana.”
Hans avuga ko ubushakashatsi buherutse gukorwa bugaragaza ko "ginseng ishobora kuba umuti mwiza wo kuvura ikibazo cyo guhagarara k'uburemba."
Ibi biterwa nuko ginseng ishobora gufasha kongera ubushake bwo gukora imibonano mpuzabitsina no kuruhuka imitsi yoroshye y'igitsina, ibi bikaba bishobora gutuma umuntu ahagarara.
Isuzuma ryakozwe mu 2018 ku bushakashatsi 24 ryagaragaje ko gufata inyunganiramirire ya ginseng bishobora kongera cyane ibimenyetso by'imikorere mibi y'igitsina.
Imbuto za Ginseng ni ikindi gice cy’ikimera gishobora no gufasha kuvura indwara yo kunanirwa gusohora. Ubushakashatsi bwakozwe mu 2013 bwagaragaje ko abagabo bafite ikibazo cyo gusohora igitsina bafata 1.400 mg ya ginseng berry extract buri munsi mu gihe cy’ibyumweru 8 bagize imikorere myiza mu mibonano mpuzabitsina ugereranije n’abarwayi bafashe placebo.
Nk’uko Gans abivuga, ibimenyetso byavuye mu bushakashatsi buherutse kugaragaza ko ibinyabutabire bya ginsenoside biri muri ginseng bishobora gufasha mu kuvugurura urugero rw’isukari mu maraso.
Gellman yagize ati: “Ginseng ishobora gufasha kunoza imikorere y’isukari mu mubiri, ishobora gufasha mu kugenzura isukari mu maraso,” kandi ishobora gufasha mu kuvura diyabete yo mu bwoko bwa 2.
Ginseng inafasha kugabanya ububyimbirwe, ibi bikaba ari ingenzi kuko ububyimbirwe byongera ibyago byo kurwara diyabete cyangwa bikarushaho kwiyongera ibimenyetso bya diyabete.
Isuzuma ryakozwe mu 2019 ku nyigo umunani ryagaragaje ko inyunganiramirire ya ginseng ifasha mu kunoza uburyo isukari igenzurwa mu maraso no kumva insuline ihagije, ibintu bibiri by'ingenzi mu micungire ya diyabete.
Niba ushaka kugerageza inyongeramusaruro za ginseng, ugomba kubaza muganga wawe kugira ngo arebe neza ko nta kibazo kirimo guterwa n'imiti cyangwa indwara zisanzweho.
Hans agira ati: “Abantu bagomba kubaza inzobere mu mirire cyangwa umuganga wabo mbere yo gutangira inyunganiramirire ku mpamvu iyo ari yo yose y’uburwayi.”
Hakenewe ubushakashatsi bwinshi, ariko ubushakashatsi bwerekana ko ginseng ishobora gutanga inyungu nyinshi z'ingenzi ku buzima, nko gufasha kurwanya indwara no kongera ingufu.
