“…P. paniculata, which is also called Hebanthe eriantha or Hebanthe paniculata, was recently renamed to its old botanical name [12] and belongs to the group of medicinal plants known as "ginseng" as well as a specific group of plants called adaptogens. While the pharmacological effects of other species known as "ginseng" (Eleutherococcus senticosus -Siberian ginseng, Panax quinquefolius -American ginseng, Panax ginsengKorean ginseng, Withania somnifera -Indian ginseng) are widely reported and documented [13], studies on genera Pfaffia and P. paniculata in particular are scarce [11].…”
