Over the last three decades a considerable number of scientific papers have been published on the chemistry, pharmacology and clinical effects of Siberian ginseng.
This is also called eleuthero or eleutherococcus; is a distant relative of Korean and American ginseng and is originally from southeastern Russia, northern China, Korea and Japan.
Being a powerful physiological adaptogen, Siberian ginseng is used to combat stress and fatigue, but it is more usual to use it as a preventive agent rather than as a product for the recovery of these states. Unlike Panax ginseng, Siberian ginseng does not contain ginsenosides and is therefore considered a "softer" preparation.
The key components of Siberian ginseng are a broad group of active compounds called eleutherosides. Seven major eleutherosides have been identified and most studies focus on eleutherosides B and E, which play a key role in immune function.
These substances are often used as markers during the standardization process.
In LAMBERTS we support standardized extracts, since extraction and concentration procedures ensure that the plant product is much more powerful than those products based on the whole pulverized plant, where nothing is done to concentrate the active compounds.
In this LAMBERTS product we use an extract that guarantees the level of these important compounds.
Each tablet provides 100 mg of extract, obtained from more than 1500 mg of dried plant and therefore it is estimated that it is up to 15 times more potent than a product that contains simply 100 mg of pulverized plant material. These tablets are small and coated so they do not have bad taste and are also easy to swallow.
