AI Summary
This resolution proclaims October 23rd as K-Ginseng Day in California, recognizing the deep cultural and medicinal significance of Korean ginseng, particularly red ginseng, which has a two-thousand-year history in traditional Korean medicine. The resolution highlights ginseng's origins in East Asia, its use as a holistic health supplement that promotes vitality, and its potential benefits including reducing fatigue, enhancing mental clarity, supporting immune health, and improving overall well-being. Drawing from Korean cultural traditions, the resolution notes that the Korean Ministry of Agriculture originally designated October 23rd as Ginseng Day in 2016, and emphasizes how Korean red ginseng is uniquely processed by steaming to concentrate its active ingredients, making it particularly valued for its health-promoting properties. The resolution also acknowledges ginseng's increased popularity during challenging times like the COVID-19 pandemic and its versatility in various forms such as teas, supplements, and skincare products, ultimately celebrating its role in promoting health and wellness across different ages and backgrounds.
