Ginseng? Gensing is a common misspelling of ginseng.

Ginseng is a popular herbal supplement used for a wide variety of reasons, including stimulating the immune system and improving mental functioning and overall mental health. It appears to have blood-thinning properties, as well as estrogen-like effects. Early, small studies have shown the supplement to be effective for a number of uses. However, larger studies are needed to confirm these positive findings.

While many people respond well to ginseng supplements, side effects are possible. Common side effects include upset stomach, vaginal bleeding, insomnia, and high blood pressure.
