Ingredients
  • 1 cup peeled and finely cut carrot

  • 2 dried small whole ginseng roots - rinsed
  • 8 cups water
  • 1 tsp salt (optional)

  5. Drink 3 times a week, preferably at night, for other purposes *ahem*

Sounds interesting, I might have to try this, but not because I take martial arts classes. ;)


Don't take martial arts classes to resolve couples conflict, just try this tonic recipe!! Thanks for your post!


You split my sides. I like the sound of this for healing purposes...but honestly the word aphrodisiac caught my attention.


Now I have to find the ginseng!!! lol got my 5 for sure!! lol


WOW! gotta try this!!! thanks!


This looks great... very healthy!


Dana, I thought this was hoocth. You want me to eat something healthy??


Sign me up! I'm a fan of all the attributes listed. This is cool...and healthy!

One question. If I were to...say...let my...sweetie drink this as well...would he and I spontaneously combust or something? Not that I'm complaining - just want to have a fire extinguisher nearby.

Well...the mind does wander to such things. *hehehe*
