Sep 06, 2022

At present, there are many ginsenoside products on the market, but they are mixed, and many products are shoddy, making false propaganda and deceiving consumers. In particular, some new so-called imported ginsenoside products are doing everything in their propaganda to harm consumers without a bottom line. In order to avoid everyone being deceived, we have summarized 5 common pitfalls of ginsenoside products. You must be vigilant when choosing products!


Are ginsenosides really imported from the United States?


Recently, there have been a number of ginsenoside products that are claimed to be imported from the United States, but after inquiries from many consumers, it was revealed that these are not really imported products from the United States. The trademark holders for these products are all Chinese companies, most likely produced in China, and then posing as the United States to import ginsenosides.


According to the survey, there is no manufacturer of ginsenosides in the United States, and there are no American brands of ginsenosides in the U.S. market, so the so-called U.S. imported ginsenosides appearing in the domestic market are likely to be counterfeit!

Fake ginsenoside content?


In order to lure consumers into buying, some products arbitrarily fabricated the content of ginsenosides in the publicity. For example, there is a ginsenoside capsule that claims that one capsule contains 650~750mg of ginsenoside, but the fact is that the weight of a whole capsule is less than 600mg (not counting the capsule shell). Such deception has violated human common sense.

Whether it is a medicine or a health product, in addition to the active ingredients, there are also excipients, and excipients often account for the majority. Excipients are essential because they play a very important role, including: fixing the form, acting as a carrier, improving product stability, improving the dissolution rate of active ingredients, promoting absorption, and controlling the slow release of drug effects, etc.


The highest content of ginsenoside products that can be achieved by the current technology is about 20%, and the maximum content of ginsenosides in one capsule is about 60mg. Any propaganda whose ginsenoside content is significantly higher than this amount can basically be judged to be fraudulent. The content of ginsenosides in most products is less than 3%, and each capsule contains no more than 20mg of ginsenosides.
