Ginsenosides, also known as saponins, are the main active substances in ginger. The quality of a ginger extract is generally measured by the concentration of these molecules. These molecules possess energizing and tonic properties.
How can I measure the quality of my product?
Different levels of ginsenosides are generally highlighted on food products:
- Between 5 and 10 mg/gram: poor quality ginseng extract
- Between 10 and 15 mg/gram: very good ginseng extract. The maximum concentration of a ginseng extract is 15 mg/g.
