Product Description

KOREAN GINSENG POWDERED EXTRACT 15:1

Botanical name: Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer
Plant part used: Root

What is a powdered extract?

A powdered extract is made by extracting selected compounds from the ginseng root using water, alcohol, or another suitable solvent. The liquid is filtered and dried to produce a concentrated powder.

A 15:1 extract ratio means that approximately 15 kg of dried ginseng root was used to produce 1 kg of finished extract. It does not necessarily mean the product contains 15 times more of every active compound. Its potency also depends on the extraction method and verified ginsenoside content.

Traditional uses and potential benefits

Korean ginseng is traditionally used as a restorative tonic and adaptogenic herb. It may help to:

• Support energy and vitality during periods of tiredness or weakness.
• Support mental alertness, concentration and cognitive performance.
• Promote resilience during periods of physical or emotional stress.
• Support general well-being and normal immune function.
• Assist recovery following periods of increased physical or mental demand.

The principal active compounds in Korean ginseng are known as ginsenosides. Clinical evidence suggests that ginseng may provide a small benefit for general fatigue, while evidence for cognitive and other benefits remains promising but not conclusive.

Important note

Because a 15:1 extract is concentrated, it should be used in smaller quantities than ordinary powdered ginseng root. Dosage should be based on the supplier’s specification and, preferably, the product’s verified ginsenoside content.

Caution: Ginseng may cause sleeplessness, particularly when taken late in the day. Consult a healthcare practitioner before use if pregnant, breastfeeding, diabetic, using blood-thinning medication, living with an autoimmune condition, or taking prescription medicine.
