What is the difference between Siberian Ginseng and Korean Ginseng?
Scientists classify common Korean Ginseng as Panax Ginseng, while Siberian Ginseng is a distinct plant species classified as Eleutheroccus Senticosus. Comparative analysis in the Soviet Union lead researchers to conclude that Siberian Ginseng shows higher biological activity, a wider range of effects and even less toxicity than Korean Ginseng. Furthermore, virtually all Korean Ginseng is now cultivated, while nearly all Siberian Ginseng grows wild. Wild herbs are consistently more potent and effective than their hothouse counterparts. This extra measure of safety and effectiveness makes Siberian Ginseng a true gold standard among Ginseng varieties.
