Raw Material

The ginseng blending ratio is written on the package

Red is labeled at 100% red ginseng root body and black at 100% black ginseng root body. It means only the main root is used and no fine roots are mixed in. The 'saponin 40 mg/g or more' inside the ingredient name is a figure attached to the red ginseng powder or black ginseng powder raw material, not to one stick of the finished product.
