A Bioavailable Panax Ginseng
GS15-4™ is produced through a fermentation process that transforms the ginsenosides into end-stage metabolites, mimicking the fermentation environment of the colon. This transformation has been clinically proven to provide 15 times increased absorption, 4 times faster absorption, and 4 times more consistent absorption—with a better taste profile than conventional ginseng extracts.
