World Forex Trade Affected By Chinese Economic Policies   by Jojo Mathew

People interested in world affairs would knowof China`s influence on currency rates – especially the United States. In recent years, the Chinese have receives a lot of criticism for its economic policies. Though topic has surfaced in numerous shapes, the basic message is that the Chinese currency is artificially undervalued to improve their global competitiveness.

Now recovering from recession the US economy is under much more stress. Many economists attribute the slower recovery of the US economy on China. Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner warned Congress that these barriers will continue to affect recovery plans at home. China has been accused of practices such as buying 100s on millions, even billions of dollars one day and dumping them another day to manipulate the currency pairs trade value.

On the contrary the Chinese government said that there will not be a significant impact on the trade deficit that United States has even if the Chinese Yuan is corrected.Politician and economists are not the only one asking for action – corporations have also joined the bandwagon. Unlike the congress corporations seem to be more cautious because a Chinse retaliation would worsen the situation.

Forex trade is a limiting factor. However, excessive pressure could force a reaction form the Chinese government (like the incident with Google, where the search engine was banned from the country for a few weeks). Many multinationals rightly worry about their operations in China being affected by improper political actions. This will be detrimental for manufacturing giants who have tens of factories and entire production lines across China.

World politics and economic circumstances have for the longest time played an important role in the status quo of foreign exchange. Recently other attributes such as M&A have also begunimpacting currency prices. It shows how much say private companies have in today`s globalsubjects.

Chinese Five Spice Powder 1 lb: K $13.77 This is Frontier’’s nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Some Frontier packs are double wall wax-lined paper. Chinese 5 spice is a blend of dry spices that originated in China. It contains the following spices, Cinnamon, fennel, cloves, star anise and white pepper. It is often used in the classic dish Peking Duck as a marinade. Chinese 5 spice is very pungent and has a strong flavor, so use it sparingly. It can also be added to sauces or sprinkled over deep fried wantons. http://www.pepperfool.com/recipes/appetizers/chinese_5spicewings.html: Chinese 5-spice Chicken Wings 3 pounds chicken wings (12 to 14) 1 onion a 1 1/2-inch piece peeled fresh gingerroot 2 tablespoons soy sauce (preferably Kikkoman) 1 tablespoon medium-dry Sherry 1 tablespoon Chinese five-spice powder 1/2 teaspoon Cayenne or Thai Chile powder 1 tablespoon sugar 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon coarse salt 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, or to taste 1/2 cup cornstarch 6 cups vegetable oil Cut off wing tips, reserving for another use, and halve wings at joint. Coarsely chop onion and finely chop gingerroot. In a large sealable plastic bag combine onion, gingerroot, soy sauce, Sherry, five-spice powder, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt. Add wings and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Turn bag until wings are completely coated. Marinate chicken wings in bag in a large bowl, chilled, turning bag once, 2 hours. Preheat oven to 350°F. Transfer wings and marinade to a roasting pan or large shallow baking pan and bake, covered with foil, in middle of oven 1 hour. Cool wings until they can be handled and drain in a colander, discarding marinade. Wings may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Reduce temperature to 250°F. In a small serving bowl combine remaining 2 tablespoons salt and pepper. Put cornstarch in a small bowl and dredge each wing, knocking off excess cornstarch and transferring to a shallow pan. In a 5- to 6-quart heavy kettle heat oil until a deep-fat thermometer registers 370°F. Working in batches of 6 or 7, fry wings in oil until golden brown, about 3 minutes, and with a slotted spoon transfer to paper towels to drain. Keep wings warm on a baking sheet in oven. Fry remaining wings in same manner, returning oil to 370°F. between batches. Serve wings with salt and pepper mixture. Serves 6 as an hors d”oeuvre or 4 as a main course. The two-pronged cooking method used for these wings incorporating both braising and deep-frying is a takeoff on the Chinese technique of steaming, then frying. We think it keeps the meat unbelievably tender while getting the skin supercrispy. Be sure to allow at least 2 hours for the wings to marinate. http://www.mexican.recipes-to-go.com/5_Spice_Tamales.html: 5 Spice Tamales Mexican Recipes need not be unhealthy, and can be included in a healthy diet.

Chinese Five Spice Powder, 25 lb box: K $292.62 Chinese 5 spice is a blend of dry spices that originated in China. It contains the following spices: cinnamon, fennel, cloves, star anise and white pepper. Chinese 5 spice is very pungent and has a strong flavor, so use it sparingly. It can also be added to sauces or sprinkled over deep fried wantons. It is often used in the classic dish Peking Duck as a marinade. http://www.pepperfool.com/recipes/appetizers/chinese_5spicewings.html: Chinese 5-spice Chicken Wings 3 pounds chicken wings (12 to 14) 1 onion a 1 1/2-inch piece peeled fresh gingerroot 2 tablespoons soy sauce (preferably Kikkoman) 1 tablespoon medium-dry Sherry 1 tablespoon Chinese five-spice powder 1/2 teaspoon Cayenne or Thai Chile powder 1 tablespoon sugar 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon coarse salt 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, or to taste 1/2 cup cornstarch 6 cups vegetable oil Cut off wing tips, reserving for another use, and halve wings at joint. Coarsely chop onion and finely chop gingerroot. In a large sealable plastic bag combine onion, gingerroot, soy sauce, Sherry, five-spice powder, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt. Add wings and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Turn bag until wings are completely coated. Marinate chicken wings in bag in a large bowl, chilled, turning bag once, 2 hours. Preheat oven to 350°F. Transfer wings and marinade to a roasting pan or large shallow baking pan and bake, covered with foil, in middle of oven 1 hour. Cool wings until they can be handled and drain in a colander, discarding marinade. Wings may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Reduce temperature to 250°F. In a small serving bowl combine remaining 2 tablespoons salt and pepper. Put cornstarch in a small bowl and dredge each wing, knocking off excess cornstarch and transferring to a shallow pan. In a 5- to 6-quart heavy kettle heat oil until a deep-fat thermometer registers 370°F. Working in batches of 6 or 7, fry wings in oil until golden brown, about 3 minutes, and with a slotted spoon transfer to paper towels to drain. Keep wings warm on a baking sheet in oven. Fry remaining wings in same manner, returning oil to 370°F. between batches. Serve wings with salt and pepper mixture. Serves 6 as an hors d”oeuvre or 4 as a main course. The two-pronged cooking method used for these wings incorporating both braising and deep-frying is a takeoff on the Chinese technique of steaming, then frying. We think it keeps the meat unbelievably tender while getting the skin supercrispy. Be sure to allow at least 2 hours for the wings to marinate. http://www.mexican.recipes-to-go.com/5_Spice_Tamales.html: 5 Spice Tamales Mexican Recipes need not be unhealthy, and can be included in a healthy diet.

Chinese Hibiscus Flower Whole (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) 8 oz: B $7.99 Hibiscus or Rosemallow is a large genus of about 200-220 species of flowering plants in the family Malvaceae, native to warm temperate, subtropical and tropical regions throughout the world. The genus includes both annual and perennial herbaceous plants, and woody shrubs and small trees. The flowers are large, conspicuous, trumpet-shaped, with five or more petals, ranging from white to pink, red, purple or yellow, and from 4-15 cm broad. The fruit is a dry five-lobed capsule, containing several seeds in each lobe, which are released when the capsule splits open at maturity. Many of these species are grown for their showy flowers and many are used as landscape shrubs. Hibiscus syriacus (Mugunghwa or ”Rose of Sharon”) is the national flower of South Korea, while Hibiscus rosa-sinensis (Bunga Raya or ”Chinese hibiscus”) is the national flower of Malaysia. In temperate zones, probably the most commonly grown ornamental species is Hibiscus syriacus, the common garden Hibiscus, also known in some areas as the ”Rose of Althea” or ”Rose of Sharon” (but not to be confused with the unrelated Hypericum calycinum, also called ”Rose of Sharon”). In tropical and subtropical areas, the Chinese hibiscus (H. rosa-sinensis), with its many showy hybrids, is the most popular hibiscus. http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1592511 The medicinal values of the flowers of Hibiscus rosa sinensis (Chinese rose) have been mentioned in ancient literature as useful in disorders of the heart. Dried pulverized flower of Hibiscus rosa sinensis was administered orally to Wistar albino rats (150–200 gms) in three different doses…, 6 days per week for 4 weeks. Conclusion: It may be concluded that flower of Hibiscus rosa sinensis (250 mg/kg) augments endogenous antioxidant compounds of rat heart and also prevents the myocardium from isoproterenol induced myocardial injury.

Spirulina Powder Chinese 1 lb: C $16.43 This is Starwest’s nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Spirulina is a single-celled, spiral-shaped blue-green microalgae that is often called a ’superfood’ because of its nutrient-density. A highly digestible food, spirulina is at least 60% vegetable protein, which is predigested by the algae. It is higher in protein than any other food. 1 tsp of Spirulina contains 280% DV Beta Carotene, 110% B12, 15% Iron, 2% Calcium and no fat. Its outstanding nutritional profile also includes the essential fatty acids, GLA fatty acid, lipids, the nucleic acids (RNA and DNA), B complex, vitamin C and E and phytochemicals, such as carotenoids, chlorophyll (blood purifier), and phycocyanin (a blue pigment), which is a protein that is known to inhibit cancer. The carotenoids and chlorophyll may also contribute to Spirulina’s anticancer and apparent immunogenic effects. Spirulina is two to six times richer in B12 than its nearest rival, raw beef liver. Spirulina is 58 times richer than raw spinach in iron. Spirulina is nature’s richest whole-food source of Vitamin E. It’s 3 times richer than raw wheat germ and its biological activity is 49% greater than synthetic vitamin E. Spirulina is nature’s richest whole-food source of Beta-Carotene (Pro Vitamin A).

Wild Yam Root Chinese Cut & Sifted Cert. Organic (Dioscorea batatas; Shan yao) 1 lb: C $23.85 This is Starwest’s nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. The Chinese yam, called Shan Yao in Chinese herbalism, is a sweet soothing herb that stimulates the stomach and spleen and has a tonic effect on the lungs and kidneys. The tuber contains allantoin, a cell-proliferant that speeds the healing process. The root is an ingredient of ”The herb of eight ingredients”, traditionally prescribed in Chinese herbalism to treat hyperthyroidism, nephritis and diabetes. The Chinese yam is claimed to stimulate appetite and to be a remedy for chronic diarrhea, asthma, fatigue, uncontrollable or frequent urination, diabetes, and emotional instability. Used externally, proponents claim the Chinese yam can speed the healing of boils and abscesses. Herbalists also use it to treat colic because it is thought to relieve spasms. The tuber is cooked. It has a floury texture with a very pleasant flavour that is rather like a potato. The tubers can be boiled, baked, fried, mashed, grated and added to soups. They store well and for a long time, and can also be left in the ground and harvested as required in the winter. This is a top quality root crop, very suitable for use as a staple food. An arrowroot can be extracted from the root, though this is not as good at binding other foods as the starch from D. japonica. In East Indian traditional medicine, wild yam is used for sexual and hormonal problems. Chinese herbalists have long used the herb for rheumatism, asthma, and digestive and urinary complaints The roots of most, if not all, members of this genus, contains diosgenin. This is widely used in modern medicine in order to manufacture progesterone and other steroid drugs. These are used as contraceptives and in the treatment of various disorders of the genitary organs as well as in a host of other diseases such as asthma and arthritis. Mexican Wild Yam, the related Dioscorea mexicana, is the original source of diosgenin, the steroidal saponin used for contraceptive hormone manufacture. Wild yam is helpful with the nausea of pregnant women and dysmenorrhoea. Another compound, dioscoretine, has been shown to lower blood triglycerides and to raise HDL (‘good’) cholesterol. An extract of wild yam was found to have antioxidant properties. Grieve’s classic ‘A Modern Herbal’: ‘Much saponin has been found in the roots, and a substance improperly called dioscorein, obtained by precipitating the tincture with water.’ ‘Medicinal Action and Uses: Antispasmodic. Perhaps the best relief and promptest cure for bilious colic, especially helpful in the nausea of pregnant women. Valuable also in painful cholera morbus with cramps, neuralgic affections, spasmodic hiccough and spasmodic asthma.’ Dosage: ½ to 1 drachm of fluid extract. Dioscorein, ¼ to 4 grains.

Ginseng Root Powder Chinese Red (Panax ginseng; Ren Shen) 4 oz: C $13.95 4 oz. of Chinese Red Ginseng Root Powder – from 6 year-old roots. Used as a tea, decoction, extract, tincture, food additive and supplement. Chinese Ren Shen, ‘root of heaven,’ Panax ginseng, Asian ginseng, is native to Manchuria and Korea and is cultivated in China, Korea and Japan. The ginseng plant requires 5-7 years to mature from seed. Ginseng has a sweetly aromatic flavour. Its root has long been regarded by the Chinese as a panacea for illness, though it was usually used by them in a prophylactic (preventive) rather than a curative manner. Many Native American tribes used American ginseng, Panax quinquefolia. Medicinal uses ranged from digestive disorders to sexual problems. The Chinese began to use American ginseng after it was imported during the 1700s. The traditional applications in China are somewhat different from those for Panax ginseng (Asian ginseng), American ginseng being considered a better stomachic. The type and ratio of ginsenosides are somewhat different in American and Asian ginseng, but not radically different. Pharmacologically, ginseng is nonspecific in its effects and is capable of a normalizing action irrespective of the pathological situation. Ginseng’s ginsenosides are believed to increase energy, counter the effects of stress, and enhance intellectual and physical performance. Thirteen ginsenosides have been identified in Asian ginseng. Ginsenosides Rgl and Rbl have received the most attention. Other constituents include the panaxans, which help lower blood sugar, and the polysaccharides (complex sugar molecules), which support immune function. Numerous double-blind studies have confirmed Chinese tradition, objectively demonstrating Asian ginseng’s ability to lower blood sugar, reduce fatigue and stress, and support the normal function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, the hormonal stress system of the body. Ginseng’s support of the brain’s production of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) appears to improve mental performance, learning, and memory and sensory awareness, exactly as Chinese tradition has always maintained. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs, reflecting the opinion of modern scientific herbalism, recommends Ginseng root (Panax ginseng) ‘As tonic for invigoration and fortification in times of fatigue and debility, for declining capacity for work and concentration, also during convalescence.’ ‘Daily dosage: 1 – 2 g of root; equivalent preparations. Mode of Administration: Cut root for teas, powder and galenical preparations for internal use. Duration of Administration: Generally up to 3 months.

Used as a tea, decoction, extract, tincture, food additive and supplement. Chinese Ren Shen, ‘root of heaven,’ Panax ginseng, Asian ginseng, is native to Manchuria and Korea and is cultivated in China, Korea and Japan. The ginseng plant requires 5-7 years to mature from seed. Ginseng has a sweetly aromatic flavour. Its root has long been regarded by the Chinese as a panacea for illness, though it was usually used by them in a prophylactic (preventive) rather than a curative manner. Many Native American tribes used American ginseng, Panax quinquefolia. Medicinal uses ranged from digestive disorders to sexual problems. The Chinese began to use American ginseng after it was imported during the 1700s. The traditional applications in China are somewhat different from those for Panax ginseng (Asian ginseng), American ginseng being considered a better stomachic. The type and ratio of ginsenosides are somewhat different in American and Asian ginseng, but not radically different. Pharmacologically, ginseng is nonspecific in its effects and is capable of a normalizing action irrespective of the pathological situation. Ginseng’s ginsenosides are believed to increase energy, counter the effects of stress, and enhance intellectual and physical performance. Thirteen ginsenosides have been identified in Asian ginseng. Ginsenosides Rgl and Rbl have received the most attention. Other constituents include the panaxans, which help lower blood sugar, and the polysaccharides (complex sugar molecules), which support immune function. Numerous double-blind studies have confirmed Chinese tradition, objectively demonstrating Asian ginseng’s ability to lower blood sugar, reduce fatigue and stress, and support the normal function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, the hormonal stress system of the body. Ginseng’s support of the brain’s production of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) appears to improve mental performance, learning, and memory and sensory awareness, exactly as Chinese tradition has always maintained. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs, reflecting the opinion of modern scientific herbalism, recommends Ginseng root (Panax ginseng) ‘As tonic for invigoration and fortification in times of fatigue and debility, for declining capacity for work and concentration, also during convalescence.’ ‘Daily dosage: 1 – 2 g of root; equivalent preparations. Mode of Administration: Cut root for teas, powder and galenical preparations for internal use. Duration of Administration: Generally up to 3 months. A repeated course is feasible.’ ‘Action: In various stress models, e.g., an immobilization test and the coldness test, the resistance of laboratory test animals (rodents) was increased.’ Grieve’s classic ‘A Modern Herbal’: ‘In China, both varieties (Asian Panax ginseng & American Panax qui

Wild Yam Root, Chinese (Dioscorea batatas; Shan yao) Granules 100 grams (3.5 oz): V (Special Order) $17.07 Functions: Tonify spleen and stomach Tonify lungs and kidneys Astringe sperm Indication: Diarrhea due to spleen deficiency, no appetite, chronic dysentery, cough due to general debility, abnormal sweating, diabetes, frequent urination, nocturnal emission, leukorrhea, urinary frequency, fatigue. The Chinese yam, called Shan Yao in Chinese herbalism, is a sweet soothing herb that stimulates the stomach and spleen and has a tonic effect on the lungs and kidneys. The tuber contains allantoin, a cell-proliferant that speeds the healing process. The root is an ingredient of ”The herb of eight ingredients”, traditionally prescribed in Chinese herbalism to treat hyperthyroidism, nephritis and diabetes. The Chinese yam is claimed to stimulate appetite and to be a remedy for chronic diarrhea, asthma, fatigue, uncontrollable or frequent urination, diabetes, and emotional instability. Used externally, proponents claim the Chinese yam can speed the healing of boils and abscesses. Herbalists also use it to treat colic because it is thought to relieve spasms. The tuber is cooked. It has a floury texture with a very pleasant flavour that is rather like a potato. The tubers can be boiled, baked, fried, mashed, grated and added to soups. They store well and for a long time, and can also be left in the ground and harvested as required in the winter. This is a top quality root crop, very suitable for use as a staple food. An arrowroot can be extracted from the root, though this is not as good at binding other foods as the starch from D. japonica. In East Indian traditional medicine, wild yam is used for sexual and hormonal problems. Chinese herbalists have long used the herb for rheumatism, asthma, and digestive and urinary complaints The roots of most, if not all, members of this genus, contains diosgenin. This is widely used in modern medicine in order to manufacture progesterone and other steroid drugs. These are used as contraceptives and in the treatment of various disorders of the genitary organs as well as in a host of other diseases such as asthma and arthritis. Mexican Wild Yam, the related Dioscorea mexicana, is the original source of diosgenin, the steroidal saponin used for contraceptive hormone manufacture. Wild yam is helpful with the nausea of pregnant women and dysmenorrhoea. Another compound, dioscoretine, has been shown to lower blood triglycerides and to raise HDL (‘good’) cholesterol. An extract of wild yam was found to have antioxidant properties. Grieve’s classic ‘A Modern Herbal’: ‘Much saponin has been found in the roots, and a substance improperly called dioscorein, obtained by precipitating the tincture with water.’ ‘Medicinal Action and Uses: Antispasmodic. Perhaps the best relief and promptest cure for bilious colic, especially helpful in the nausea of pregnant women. Valuable also in painful cholera morbus with cramps, neuralgic affections, spasmodic hiccough and spasmodic asthma.’ Dos

Licorice Root Chinese Powder (Glycyrrhiza glabra) 1 lb: C $11.25 This is Starwest’s nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Famous for its pungent, sweet flavor, licorice is essential in innumerable candy, confection, beverage and sauce recipes, and makes an estimable liqueur. Licorice is also a traditional herbal remedy. The sweet saponin glycyrrhizin occurs in the roots of Glycyrrhiza glabra, the original European source, and in Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Chinese licorice. Authorities treat the two as chemically and medicinally identical. As Grieve puts it, ‘The Liquorice of medicine and commerce is derived from the sweet root of various species of Glycyrrhiza, a genus which contains about fourteen species, natives of warmer temperate countries in both the New and Old Worlds…’ The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) ‘For catarrhs of the upper respiratory tract and gastric/duodenal ulcers.’ ‘Side Effects: On prolonged use and with higher doses, mineralocorticoid effects may occur in the form of sodium and water retention and potassium loss, accompanied by hypertension, edema, and hypokalemia, and, in rare cases, myoglobinuria.’ ‘Average daily dosage: About 5 – 15 g of root, equivalent to 200 – 600 mg of glycyrrhizin; As Succus liquiritiae: 0.5 – 1 g for catarrhs of the upper respiratory tract, 1.5 – 3 g for gastric/duodenal ulcers; equivalent preparations.’ ‘Mode of Administration: Powdered root, finely cut root or dry extracts for infusions, decoctions, liquid or solid dosage forms for internal use (Succus liquiritiae). Duration of Administration: Not longer than 4 – 6 weeks without medical advice. There is no objection to using licorice root as a flavoring agent up to a maximum daily dosage equivalent to 100 mg glycyrrhizin.’ ‘Actions: According to controlled clinical studies, glycyrrhizic acid and the aglycone of glycyrrhizic acid accelerate the healing of gastric ulcers. Secretolytic and expectorant effects have been confirmed in tests on rabbits. In the isolated rabbit ileum, an antispasmodic action has been observed at concentrations of 1:2500 – 1:5000.’ Although the Commission E lists severe liver disease as a contraindication, less severe liver disease can be helped by the use of licorice. Hepatoprotective licorice tea is widely used as a liver tonic in Japan. Licorice’s triterpene glycyrrhizin has been shown to prevent liver injury from such agents as carbon tetrachloride, benzene hexachloride and PCB. Glycyrrhizin aids antibody production and inhibits the growth of several DNA and RNA viruses, irreversibly inactivating the Herpes simplex virus. Grieve’s classic ‘A Modern Herbal’: ‘The chief constituent of Liquorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra), to which its sweet taste is due, is Glycyrrhizin (6 to 8 per cent), obtainable in the form of a sweet, white crystalline powder, consisting of the calcium and potassium salts of glycyrrhizic acid.

Pharmacologically, ginseng is nonspecific in its effects and is capable of a normalizing action irrespective of the pathological situation. Ginseng’s ginsenosides are believed to increase energy, counter the effects of stress, and enhance intellectual and physical performance. Thirteen ginsenosides have been identified in Asian ginseng. Ginsenosides Rgl and Rbl have received the most attention. Other constituents include the panaxans, which help lower blood sugar, and the polysaccharides (complex sugar molecules), which support immune function. Numerous double-blind studies have confirmed Chinese tradition, objectively demonstrating Asian ginseng’s ability to lower blood sugar, reduce fatigue and stress, and support the normal function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, the hormonal stress system of the body. Ginseng’s support of the brain’s production of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) appears to improve mental performance, learning, and memory and sensory awareness, exactly as Chinese tradition has always maintained. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs, reflecting the opinion of modern scientific herbalism, recommends Ginseng root (Panax ginseng) ‘As tonic for invigoration and fortification in times of fatigue and debility, for declining capacity for work and concentration, also during convalescence.’ ‘Daily dosage: 1 – 2 g of root; equivalent preparations. Mode of Administration: Cut root for teas, powder and galenical preparations for internal use. Duration of Administration: Generally up to 3 months. A repeated course is feasible.’ ‘Action: In various stress models, e.g., an immobilization test and the coldness test, the resistance of laboratory test animals (rodents) was increased.’ Grieve’s classic ‘A Modern Herbal’: ‘In China, both varieties (Asian Panax gin
