Ginseng has been used for thousands of years for its health benefits in restoring and enhancing mental and physical capacities. Panax ginseng (also known as Korean Ginseng) represents the original true ginseng with the highest potency.
The medicinal part of the herb is the slow-growing root which provides the main natural active compound of ginseng, 'ginsenosides'. The ginsenosides in Healthspan's Panax Ginseng are only extracted from the root of the herb after four to six years when their concentration and potency peaks.
The botanical name Panax is derived from the Greek word for panacea - pan (all) akos (cure). Although no herb can be considered a 'cure-all' Panax ginseng has many well-documented health benefits. It is a tonic herb that is widely taken to improve overall health and longevity.
Each tablet contains 150mg of standardised Panax ginseng root extract (10:1) equivalent to 1500mg of root. Healthspan Panax Ginseng provides a guaranteed 30mg of natural ginsenosides.
