“ …. This study demonstrated a five-year disease free survival and overall survival rate that was significantly higher in patients taking the red ginseng powder duringhigher in patients taking the red ginseng powder during postoperative chemotherapy versus control (68.2% versus 33.3%, 76.4% versus 38.5%, respectively, p < 0.05). In spite of the limitation of a small number of patients (n = 42)spite of the limitation of a small number of patients (n 42), these findings suggest that red ginseng powder may help to improve postoperative survival in these patients. ….”
