Moreover, the researchers have established the fact that ginsenosides also reduce inflammation in the brain.

A study published in Phytotherapy Research in the year 2017 stated that ginsenosides could alleviate memory deficits which are caused by the deprivation of sleep. An experimental study reveals that ginsengextract is highly useful in reducing oxidative stress and psychosis in the case of schizophrenia. In this context, it is important to note that some time back, around 70 patients were treated with ginseng, who were suffering from schizophrenia. The herb was found to be effective in improving the memory of these patients.

3. Ginseng acts as a neuroprotective agent

This herbal supplement is an effective neuroprotective agent as it protects the brain from several disorders. Ginseng has been found to be effective in countering brain stroke, depression, and Parkinson's disease. It also regulates the neurotransmitter levels.

Ginseng promotes the activity of immune cells so that the nervous system can actively protect the cognitive functions of the brain. A review suggests ginsenosides can modulate learning and stress which also improves cognition in human beings.

One of the significant challenges that are associated with aging is the decline in memory and cognition. Various experimental studies have depicted that this herbal supplement can combat these issues. The anti-inflammatory action of this herb is found to protect from the decline in memory.
