Korean Red Ginseng is derived from the finest quality ginseng; aged ginseng roots, which are cultivated under the most natural of conditions. The roots are steamed for several hours and dried under a low heat, which helps to preserve its medicinal compounds. It is standardized to contain 6% ginsenoside content, the main active ingredient found in ginseng. This is higher than many other products on the market. Also, this product contains anti-aging substances such as antioxidants and insulin-like substances that are not found in other ginseng products.
