It does, but it takes a long time to kick in. Plus only the real ginseng work.

Used BITD when I worked nights...

Spikes energy levels, with no hangover/jitters like coffee..
Quality chinese extract (Gelcaps-not powdered) ginseng kicks in as soon as digested.

How long does it take to kick in for you?

Are you saying that gelcaps are better than powdered.

Powdered is only available where I am.

There are diff types of ginseng. Most common ones are Korean, Russian(siberian) and American. You need to research it more to determine which one is suitable for you.

This was popular during the 90's.
It's been so long for me I can't remember if it did any good.

There were a lot of cases, from an Iced Tea product --

I can't really remember which

Maybe Arizona? (I know it was in a blue bottle)

-- Which was causing kidney stones (OUCH!)

Friend of mine was a mechanic, said he drank 6-7 bottles a day...
Got the stones..

If I had to make an educated guess though...
I would again say, this is a problem w/ powdered, not extract, ginseng

Some fibrous substances can crystallize when mixed with urine
EX... (Hair clogs in shower drain)
