Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between white and red ginseng?
Red ginseng is white ginseng that has been steam-processed. This creates new ginsenosides (Rg3, Rg5) that are more bioavailable and biologically active, making red ginseng more potent at equivalent doses.
How long to take ginseng?
Recommended cycles of 8-12 weeks followed by 4 weeks off. This maintains sensitivity to ginsenosides and maximizes long-term effects.
