Ginseng-Associated Cerebral Arteritis
Neurol 45:829-830, Ryu,S.J.&Chien,Y.Y., 1995
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
We report a 28-year-old woman who had a severe headache after ingesting a large quantity of ethanol-extracted ginseng.Cerebral angiograms showed" beading"appearance in the anterior and posterior cerebral and superior cerebellar arteries,consistent with cerebral arteritis.The close temporal association between intake of ginseng and cerebral arteritis suggests a causal relationship.
