Herbs for Men

American Ginseng
This is helpful for men engaging in weight control. Men who take at least 3 grams of American ginseng each day experience lower blood sugar and insulin levels after eating. Lower levels of insulin would mean that there is a minimum tendency to store food as fat. Weight loss by diet and exercise is more likely to stay off when men use American ginseng.

St. John’s Wort
