Ginseng, belonging to the genus Panax in the Araliaceae family, is a perennial herb that usually grows in cool, humid areas of temperate forests. Its dried root and rhizome are renowned precious traditional Chinese medicines, well‑known both at home and abroad, and have long been honored as the “King of Medicinal Herbs”.
Ginseng is sweet and slightly bitter in taste, warm in nature, and acts on the spleen, lung, and heart meridians. Ancient physicians regarded it as having extraordinary effects:
replenishing primordial qi, restoring pulse and relieving collapse, tonifying the spleen and benefiting the lung, promoting fluid production and nourishing blood, and calming the mind and improving intelligence. It is also respected as the “King of Hundred Herbs”.
In Compendium of Materia Medica, Li Shizhen praised ginseng as the “foundation for treating hundreds of diseases”.
In Oriental medicine, it is regarded as a premier substance for “nourishing yin, tonifying life, and strengthening the body’s original vitality”, and is the top medicinal herb for treating consumptive diseases, internal injuries, and deficiency of both qi and blood in traditional Chinese medicine.
Ginseng Essential Oil Extraction.

Ginseng essential oil can be efficiently extracted from ginseng rhizomes using supercritical CO₂ extraction technology, an eco‑friendly and high‑efficiency method.
As a crucial active component of ginseng, ginseng essential oil has an extremely low extraction rate:
one drop of essential oil is refined from about 10 high‑quality ginseng roots, making it rare, precious, and highly valuable.
The emergence of ginseng essential oil provides a convenient and efficient new solution for the application of ginseng, suitable for topical application or aromatherapy, and expands the application scenarios of traditional Chinese medicine.
