ginsenosides supplement

Definition

An oral and herbal supplement containing sixteen ginsenosides derived from ginseng and including the ginsenoside monomers Rg3(R, S), Rh1(S, R), Rh2(R, S), Rk1, Rk3, Rg5, Rh3, Rh4, Rk2, aPPD(S, R) and aPPT(S, R), that may potentially be used to reduce fatigue. Ginseng contains a complex mixture of ginsenosides, and ginsenosides may have different mechanisms of actions and pharmacological activities due to their structural differences. They may have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cortisol-modulating activities, modulate various metabolic pathways, and are believed to act on the central nervous system (CNS), which may enhance vital energy and result in anti-fatigue effects.
