Korean Ginseng
Among the best-known adaptogenic substances is the Korean ginseng, whose action acts on the physical and mental level, involving the entire organism and producing targeted effects for each person.

Ginseng can be used in case of physical and mental tiredness, for example in times of stress. For increase physical performance (it is highly appreciated by athletes, including professional athletes), to support performance during seasonal changes or for improve concentration while studying for important exams or tests.
How to choose Ginseng
Korean Ginseng extract can contain up to 38 different types of ginsenosides. All the others, like American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolium), matter less. From the manufacturing point of view, however, a quality product is obtained from mature and whole roots, aged at least five years. Once harvested, they must be dried to promote correct conservation. In this phase, depending on the procedures, the root can take on different colors, which determine the traditional Ginseng wording white or red. The first is dried at low temperature and maintains the complex of functional principles with which it is equipped unaltered. The second is heat treated, a process that leads to the caramelization of the root. A method that is certainly quicker but leads to a partial degradation of the functional principles.
