Ginseng has proved to be very effective for hypoglycemia. The therapeutic potency of ginseng mainly relies on its geographical locality, dosage, processing and types of diabetes. Chinese ginseng has the highest therapeutic potency.
The anti-diabetic effects of ginseng have been investigated with aqueous or ethanol ginseng extracts. A proposed action mechanism has been tested on various animal models. Korean red ginseng (0.1–1.0 g/ml) significantly stimulated insulin release from isolated rat pancreatic islets at 3.3 mM glucose concentration. The treatment with oral administration of H-AG at a dose of 100 mg/kg of body weight for 20 days decreased serum levels of glucose and glycosylated proteins and hemoglobin A1C in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.
The treatment also improved the decreased creatinine clearance level and decreased the accumulation of N (ε)-lysine and its receptors for advanced glycation end product expressions in kidney. Radix Ginseng Alba improved hyperglycemia in KKAy mice, possibly by blocking intestinal glucose absorption and inhibiting hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase, while Radix Ginseng Palva has a similar effect through the up-regulation of adipocytic PPAR-y protein expression and inhibition of intestinal glucose absorption.
