Korean ginseng is a perennial plant, and by its 6th year, it reaches peak maturity — producing the highest concentration and variety of active compounds called ginsenosides. Harvesting at this stage ensures maximum potency and effectiveness in every product.

• Our Korean Red Ginseng is made from fully matured, 6-year-old roots, which are carefully washed with the skin intact, then steamed and naturally sun-dried. This traditional process:

  • Locks in the full range of natural health benefits

  • Enhances digestibility

  • Gives the roots their signature red colour

  • Extends shelf life — unopened roots can be kept for up to 10 years

  Red Ginseng is more highly valued than White Ginseng due to its enhanced potency and longer preservation.

• Ginsenosides are the primary active compounds in ginseng, and they’re unique to this plant family.
  Our 6-year-old Korean Red Ginseng contains 34 different ginsenosides — the highest number found in any ginseng variety — compared to:

  • 22 in standard Korean ginseng

  • 15 in Chinese ginseng

  • 14 in American ginseng

  • 8 in Japanese ginseng

  These compounds are studied for their potential to support energy, immunity, mental focus, and circulation.

• Steaming the ginseng root before drying:

  • Removes natural toxicity and potential side effects found in raw ginseng

  • Makes the root easier to digest and absorb

  • Enhances its flavour, aroma, and colour

  • Allows for long-term storage without preservatives

  • Makes it suitable for all ages when taken as directed

• The recommended dose for adults is 1 gram once daily, ideally before breakfast on an empty stomach.

• Children under 15 should take ¼ of the adult dose.

• It’s best to avoid taking ginseng late in the day, as its natural tonic effect can sometimes affect sleep.4
