Many cosmetics sold in the market are added with ginseng root extract, which not only nourishes anti-aging but also soothes and whitens the skin. The ginseng root extract has a higher usage rate and value in beauty and skincare products. In the following time, we will follow Xiaobian to learn more about the skin care effect of ginseng extract.


Why is it recommended to take ginsenoside instead of prototype ginseng?

01. Relationship between ginseng and ginsenoside

Since ancient times, ginseng has been a kind of health-preserving thing highly praised by Chinese people. It is known as the king of all kinds of herbs. It can replenish qi and firm the body, nourish blood and promote fluid production. It has been analyzed that there are hundreds of ingredients in ginseng, including more than 20 kinds of amino acids, multiple active peptides, vitamins, trace elements, organic acids, active enzymes, and carbohydrates, most of which have different nutritional and medical values. Therefore, many people use ginseng and believe in ginseng.

However, ginsenosides are its characteristic components, and many traditionally summarized effects of ginseng are closely related to ginsenosides. Ginsenoside is the essence of ginseng. It is a ginseng extract obtained by scientists from Araliaceae (ginseng, American ginseng, pseudo-ginseng, etc.) in the 1960s. It has important physiological activities and prominent functions, so it has become a research target. With the deepening of research, scientists found that the active ingredient formed after the metabolism and transformation of ginsenosides had better anti-cancer effects and stronger biological activity, so it was named rare ginsenosides.

02. Functional difference between ginseng and ginsenoside

Many people ask since the effect of ginsenoside is so good, why not eat ginseng directly?

Eating the prototype ginseng directly has no anti-cancer effect. A number of scientific experiments also confirmed that ginsenoside components did not appear in the original ginseng. Only after processing, ginsenoside with anti-cancer activity appeared and had an effect.

According to Xiao Bian, some ginseng powders and tablets on the market only grind the raw materials (ginseng, American ginseng, etc.) for extracting ginsenoside into powder, or add auxiliary materials and then press them into tablets. The ginsenosides were simply extracted without further separation and transformation. The ginseng directly extracted in this way can only be absorbed by the human body after being decomposed by specific enzymes. But this enzyme is relatively rare in the human body, and some people do not even have it. Therefore, the utilization rate of prototype ginseng in the human body is very low, not to mention its anti-cancer effect.

At present, ginsenoside used in the anti-cancer field is purified many times through deep wall breaking technology, such as ginsenoside Rh2, Rg3, Rg1, Rb2, etc., which has high activity and is easy to be absorbed and used by the human body. Therefore, when choosing ginsenoside products, we should also consider the extraction process of ginsenoside.

Since ancient times, there have been different processing methods for traditional Chinese medicine, and the effects of herbal medicine processed through different processes may also be very different. The difference in the efficacy of ginseng and ginsenoside is also the result, which directly leads to their different positions in the field of disease treatment and rehabilitation.

03. Why is Gaorong ginseng better?

Gaborone Ginseng is famous for its ginsenoside content is much higher than that of similar ginseng.

Rh2 contained in Gaorong Ginseng: can inhibit the metastasis of cancer cells to other organs, enhance the immunity of the body, and quickly restore the body. It has an obvious anti-metastasis effect on cancer cells and can be used together with surgery to enhance wound healing and physical recovery after surgery.

The Rg3 contained in Kawakami can act on the G2 phase of the cell reproductive cycle, inhibit the synthesis of protein and ATP in the prophase of mitosis of cancer cells, slow down the proliferation and growth of cancer cells, and inhibit the invasion of cancer cells, anti-tumor cell metastasis, promote tumor cell apoptosis, inhibit tumor cell growth, etc.


Effect of ginseng extract on skin

Ginseng extracts generally have skincare and anti-ultraviolet effects. Ginseng extract has a strong antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect. It is a natural additive for high-end cosmetics and has a significant effect on female freckles, brown spots, butterfly spots, and senile skin pigmentation. Ginseng contains a variety of ginsenosides, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals, which can promote the blood circulation of the subcutaneous capillaries, increase the nutrition supply of the skin, prevent arteriosclerosis, and regulate the water balance of the skin.
