Ginseng strongly tonifies the Lungs and Spleen as well as being a tonic to the rest of the five viscera (organs, including the Heart, Kidneys, and Liver). Modern Western research has shown it to affect the central nervous system through the hypothalamus-pituitary axis being both stimulating to the Heart, strengthening the contractions, as well as increasing the activity of RNA polymerase in the nucleus of Liver cells.
