Korean Ginseng Corp VS ND Panax Ginseng

Original post in this thread

Tillerfen · 7 points

The KGC has been around for 125 years researching and optimizing panax ginseng per their website. I haven’t tried their products but it looks to be of extremely high quality.

On the other hand ND ginseng has been extremely underwhelming for me. I trust I am getting what I pay for with ND, always, but I fear what I pay for may itself not be of the best value if it’s something not in ND’s expertise, like ginseng, which has been used in traditional Asian culture for thousands of years and over time has developed much like a master craft does.

KGC has special harvest and processing techniques which are probably hard to know the specifics about unless you’re an industry insider. I think ND doesn’t do any of this for their ginseng which is why it has been underwhelming, as you are just getting the bare bones ginsenosides as promised. I don’t know where the line lies between science and bullshit, but I feel like there is something ND doesn’t know about with processing ginseng.

Has anyone tried KGC ginseng and can compare and contrast with ND?

A petition to keep powders

It's not about pandering to anyone. If nobody buys something, what are we even doing? I don't want to sell things people don't want. If people are buying less than 10 units of something a month, that's telling me that no

Why am I an aggressive dude when I take Tongkat Ali?

When you increase testosterone in the subcortical areas of the brain, while not increasing cortisol and serotonin, you can get aggressive. Tongkat ali both increases testosterone and lowers cortisol. Since you are natura

Anthocyanin-fucoidan nanocomplex

Replying to Warren_sl · If only ND had a Fucoidan product that activates SIRT6

There's a reason we don't, and it is not because we can't get fucoidan. I have beta tested multiple extracts before. I've even enjoyed some of them. My issue is with the lack of science on the analytical chemistry side.
