A study by scientists from various research institutes in Brazil showed that ginseng (Panax ginseng) improves abdominal pain due to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Their findings, which were published in The Brazilian Journal of Pharmacognosy, were based on the results of a randomized prospective and experimental clinical trial.
Overall, these results suggest that ginseng has potential use as a natural remedy for abdominal pain in IBS patients since it is well tolerated, with only a small portion of the sample size exhibiting transient side effects.
The full text of the study is available at this link.
