How is COLD-fX Extra Strength different from other ginseng products?
Most ginseng products on the market are Asian ginseng (Panax ginseng). COLD-fX Extra Strength is a highly purified extract derived from North American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) which has a very different chemical and biological profile than Asian ginseng. Because COLD-fX Extra Strength is comprised of specific active viral-targeted, immune-enhancing molecules, polysaccharides, it doesn’t exhibit the other effects typically associated with ginseng products such as enhanced vitality, mental alertness and mood improvements. In addition, although COLD-fX Extra Strength is an extract of North American ginseng, its highly purified and precise chemical composition makes comparison with “ginseng” in general, inappropriate. Comparing COLD-fX Extra Strength with raw ginseng roots is like comparing acetylsalicylic acid (the active ingredient in Aspirin) with willow tree bark (the source material of acetylsalicylic acid).
