Guest guest Posted September 4, 2002 Report Share Posted September 4, 2002 Dear Group, Two questions came up in class tonight that I could not answer. Anyone know? 1. When ginseng is steamed, it turns red and translucent. Is the typical San Qi (Rx Notoginseng) that we see, which looks reddish brown and translucent, a steamed product? 2. Shan Yao -- Rx Dioscoreae -- is it the same "wild yam" that is sold as creams for menopausal symptoms and sometimes in formulas for "adrenal" boosting? Thank you for your help.
