Its scientific name is Panax ginseng, Panax meaning “all-healing” in Greek. Ginseng (which means “man-root” in Mandarin) is pronounced with a ‘soft g’ as in ‘jinseng’.
In Korea, it is usually known as insam, meaning “man-shaped root“. After a few years’ growth, ginseng root can indeed come to resemble a human body with two arms and legs ...

The 2 bottles arrived intact, even though the USPS envelope had the imprint of the tires having rolled over it. This happened before when I mailed CD’s to my grandchildren and they were completely crushed and unusable.
