"Ginseng strengthens the soul, brightens the eyes, opens the heart, expels evil, benefits understanding and if taken for prolonged periods of time will invigorate the body and prolong one's life." - Yazhou H.
Korean red ginseng is known by several different names including Asian ginseng, Chinese ginseng, or Panax Ginseng. It should not be confused with Siberian ginseng or American ginseng, which are different plants.
The root is the part of the plant used as a natural remedy in supplement form. The plant must grow for at least 5 years before it can be used, which means that high quality ginseng commands a high price and consumers should look skeptically at Panax Ginseng supplements that are priced at bargain prices. Panax Ginseng was discovered in the mountains of Manchuria, China, over 5000 years ago. This unique root has a plant which grows from eight to fifteen inches in height, and must be grown in cool moist soil which is frequently watered.
Active GinsenosidesWhen properly manufactured Panax Ginseng extract contains significant quantities of the major ginsenosides Rb1, Rg1, Rb2 which are responsible for the positive benefits documented in hundreds of scientific studies. American ginseng and Siberian ginseng, being different plants, do not contain the same ginsenosides at the same levels.
Beware! Not all Panax Ginseng is the Same!While less expensive and less effective methods of panax ginseng supplement production can be used, LEAN Nutraceuticals sources only the finest quality panax ginseng available in Asia and then uses an expensive and efficient scientifically designed manufacturing process to produce a concentrated 4:1 extract. This attention to detail from source to bottle is why our Panax Ginseng might cost a little more than others but we think you're worth it!
