Ginseng Energy Boost, 30 vegetarian capsules

Panax ginseng (also known as Asian, Chinese, or Korean ginseng) is a revered and widely used adaptogenic herb that may support your ability to manage stress. Its traditional use is supported by evidence of its strong abilities to maintain oxidative balance and support healthy stress response.^1,2

Pre-clinical research suggests Panax ginseng extract can support positive mood by helping to balance the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis response to stress, balance hormone levels, preserve healthy levels of brain growth factors, fight oxidative stress and promote a healthy inflammatory response.^3-5 Studies also indicate ginseng may support healthy neurological function.^6,7

A growing body of research suggests compounds from ginseng called ginsenosides support healthy glucose metabolism and mitochondrial energy production.^9-11 Other studies show ginseng may promote exercise endurance.⁸ In a placebo-controlled trial with healthy men and women, taking a fermented ginseng supplement for 14 days helped moderate the exercise-induced cortisol response and supported healthy antioxidant activity in the body.¹⁶

Fermented ginseng for maximum bioavailability

Typically, the active ginsenosides found in ginseng are poorly absorbed, and depend on conversion to more bioavailable compounds by bacteria in your gut before they make it to your blood stream.

That’s why Ginseng Energy Boost uses Panax ginseng that has already been fermented, which dramatically improves the absorption and bioavailability of the biologically active compound made from ginsenosides, Compound K.^12-14 In fact, in a study of human subjects Compound K levels were more than 15 times higher with fermented ginseng compared to standard ginseng.¹⁵ And, they reached their peak almost four times faster.¹⁶
