What is Korean Red Ginseng ?
Ginseng is a natural shrub whose root has properties considered beneficial to humans.
The ginseng plant grows in mountainous climates, humid and rainy.

The first to discover it and use it were the Chinese thousands of years ago. Because of intensive harvesting occurred over the centuries, is now rare to find the wild root. The entire Ginseng market today cultivates the root, as you see in the image on the left.

In the East, Ginseng is widespread; Ginseng is frequently used as a remedy for the care and psycho-physical well-being.
In Europe, Ginseng is not cultivated due to unsuitable climatic conditions. However, Ginseng is now becoming well known and used.

There are big differences in quality among the various species of ginseng.
The production of best ginseng quality in the market today is that of South Korea where the Panax Ginseng is grown in immaculate mountain plantations. Among the many ginseng species, the Korean red ginseng is generally considered the best for its beneficial properties.
Here is why:
- It contains higher amounts of saponin (ginsenosides: active ingredient) than the others: the 6-year Korean red ginseng contains a total of 34 species of saponin (ginsenoside). Contrastingly, Chinese ginseng contains 15 species, 14 in the American ginseng and 8 in the Japanese ginseng.
- It is cultivated with a cure without equal: selection of the most suitable land according to the climate and soil characteristics; cultivation of roots for 6 years (development under the soil); long cultivation and care process to get only the best roots of ginseng; planting only those roots with superior quality; continuous care of fields and regularly controlled by supervisors.
- Production controlled and certified by the GMP (the system that certifies the production quality control, strictly conducted throughout the entire process, from buying the ingredients, production, to packaging).
- Accurate processing with a patented 9/10 cycles in delicate steam at 95 ° for 3h, in addition to drying until obtaining a moisture content of 14%. With this fundamental process, enzymatic reactions take place which eliminate all toxins. The root takes on a dark brown color (from which the name red ginseng originates) and 34 species of saponins (ginsenosides) are fixed to preserve long-properties.
The efficacy of Korean ginseng is given by the harmonic and balanced presence of ALL ITS GINSENOSIDES. Obviously the higher the number of ginsenosides present, the more active and effective the Ginseng.
