Korean ginseng is famous all over the world. Taking some Korean ginseng back home is absolutely a good choice to please the older generation. Koreans generally eat less meat, yet they still have a good physique. Many Korean friends have told me that they grew up eating ginseng. Eating ginseng can make up for the lack of nutrition caused by eating less meat. Korea produces a large amount of ginseng, and ginseng and its products naturally become the favorite of Koreans, and are the most commonly consumed health supplements among Koreans.

The "Compendium of Materia Medica" records: Ginseng has the functions of soothing the nerves, improving eyesight, reducing body weight, and protecting internal organs. It also has the effects of anti-fatigue, preventing arteriosclerosis, lowering blood pressure, and restoring sexual function. It's absolutely a fine product.
