Hello,

* As there is a history of renal failure with diabetes, autoimmune components play a major role in a variety of ways including various body systems.
* The Ginseng extract plays a vital role for cytochrome P450 enzyme pathway of the liver and gastrointestinal tract, which mediates many of the metabolic pathways including that of neuroendocrine mediators.
* So the inherent body mechanics are playing a pivotal role for sleepiness and dizziness after Ginseg and the same should be.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
