Ginseng rouge coréen 500 mg | Standardisé à 8 % de ginsénosides

Ginsenosides are the primary bioactive compounds unique to Panax ginseng a group of triterpenoid saponins classified into protopanaxadiols (Rb1, Rb2, Rc, Rd) and protopanaxatriols (Rg1, Re, Rf). Over 100 individual ginsenosides have been identified. Standardization to 8% ginsenosides means that 8% of the extract weight is confirmed to be ginsenosides providing 40mg of active ginsenosides per 500mg capsule (80mg per 2-capsule daily dose). Non-standardized ginseng products may contain highly variable ginsenoside content. Standardization ensures consistent potency and reliable delivery of ginseng's most studied active compounds in every capsule.

White ginseng is raw Panax ginseng root that has been peeled and dried without steaming. Korean Red Ginseng is produced by steaming raw Panax ginseng root at high temperature before drying a traditional Korean process that transforms the ginsenoside profile, converting certain ginsenosides into more bioavailable forms and generating unique ginsenosides including Rg3, which is found in red ginseng but not in unprocessed white ginseng. The steaming process also gives red ginseng its characteristic reddish brown colour. Korean Red Ginseng is generally considered to have a more complex and potent ginsenoside profile than white ginseng.

Korean Red Ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) and American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) are both true Panax species containing ginsenosides, but with different ginsenoside profiles and traditional uses. Korean Red Ginseng is considered more stimulating and warming in traditional East Asian medicine; American ginseng is considered more cooling and calming. Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) is not a true ginseng it is a different plant species that contains eleutherosides rather than ginsenosides and has different pharmacological properties. Only Panax species contain true ginsenosides.

Unlike caffeine, which stimulates the central nervous system by blocking adenosine receptors, Korean Red Ginseng supports energy through adaptogenic mechanisms supporting the body's natural energy metabolism, HPA axis regulation, and resilience against fatigue. Ginsenosides interact with the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis, supporting the body's natural stress response and homeostatic balance. This makes Korean Red Ginseng suitable for sustained daily use and for individuals who are sensitive to stimulants or caffeine. Some individuals may still experience mild stimulating effects discontinue use if insomnia, anxiety, or headaches occur.

An adaptogen is a botanical that helps the body adapt to physical, mental, and environmental stress, supporting homeostasis and resilience during periods of demand. Korean Red Ginseng is one of the most extensively studied and historically recognized adaptogens, used in traditional East Asian medicine for over 2,000 years for its energy, stamina, and stress resilience properties. Ginsenosides support adaptogenic activity through multiple pathways including HPA axis modulation, antioxidant activity, and support for cellular energy metabolism.

Consult a healthcare practitioner before use if you are taking blood thinners (anticoagulants), digoxin, or antidepressant medications; if you have diabetes (Korean Red Ginseng may affect blood glucose levels); or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Discontinue use if you experience insomnia, anxiety, or headaches. Not recommended for individuals under 18 without healthcare practitioner guidance. Keep out of reach of children.
