Siberian ginseng, also known as eleuthero, has been used for centuries in Eastern countries, including China and Russia. Although a distant relative of American (Panax quinquefolius) and Asian ginseng (Panax ginseng), with some overlap in its uses, siberian ginseng is a distinct plant with different active chemical components. Siberian ginseng is not a true ginseng as it is only remotely related to the true ginsengs (such as the well-known Panax ginseng). However, it is commonly regarded as such for its similar adaptogenic properties (Chen et. al, 2008). On that note, it is incorrect to call Eleuthero Root Siberian Ginseng, as it is not a true ginseng.

These plant parts are often used as a tea, decoctions, extracts, made into capsules or even a footbath.
