The Ginseng Story
Ginseng's beginnings can be traced back to Korea one thousand years ago when its effects were first discovered. This was done by cooking and drying the plant. In the travel essay "高麗圖經" written by Xuanhe in 1123, who was an envoy of the Song Dynasty visiting Goryo, the power of ginseng was documented. It is still renowned today for its health benefits which have been verified by both Eastern and Western medical communities. In essence, it is a food for health created by the combination of history and science.

What is Korean Ginseng?
Ginseng is widely desired for its numerous beneficial components. In the ginseng family, Korean ginseng stands out for its impressive levels of saponins and non-saponins that can't be found with other varieties.
Korean Ginseng contains a range of valuable saponins including Rb1 which may help regulate healthy liver and brain function. It is also abundant in non-saponin ingredients, one of the most notable being acidic polysaccharide which has been proven to manage cholesterol levels.
Korean Ginseng Vs Korean Red Ginseng Vs American Ginseng Vs Chinese Ginseng Vs Japanese Ginseng
Korean Red Ginseng is a version of Korean Ginseng that has been through a traditional steaming and drying process, turning it red. This is done to enhance the root's benefits and protect it. Not all ginseng plants are equal in terms of their benefits; Korean Red Ginseng contains an abundance of saponins while American, Chinese, and Japanese Ginseng have less than 15 saponins. Saponins are naturally occurring compounds that are responsible for the capabilities of Ginseng.

Crafting genuine ginseng is a combination of artistry, skill and scientific knowledge. We devote two years to getting each field ready for planting, then let each plant grow for six years until it is at its best, and then permit the area to lie fallow for a decade before replanting.

The All-Healing Herb
The term "Panax" is the scientific name for ginseng, which is derived from the Greek language and translates to "all-healing". This particular genus of plants contains saponins called ginsenosides, a class of compounds that cannot be found in any other plant. We make sure to allow our ginseng to grow for a period of six years in order to acquire the maximum amount of saponins in each root. Part of the Korean lifestyle and culture, ginseng boasts a number of natural health advantages.
