Korean Red Ginseng Extract Paste, Vegan Friendly (120g)

My Secret Weapon Against the Afternoon Slump (and General 'Blah' Feeling)Let's talk energy. Not the jittery, crash-and-burn kind you get from too much coffee, but the steady, sustained kind that helps you feel present and capable throughout the day. For years, I struggled with that dreaded afternoon slump, feeling my focus fade and my motivation dip. I tried everything – more sleep (ha!), different diets, even questionable amounts of questionable energy drinks. Nothing really worked consistently, and I was starting to accept that feeling perpetually "blah" was just part of being an adult. Then, I decided to explore the world of traditional supplements and stumbled upon Korean Red Ginseng. Specifically, this extract. And wow.This isn't a magic potion that makes you bounce off the walls. Instead, it's like flipping a gentle, consistent "on" switch for your system. The first thing I noticed after incorporating this extract into my morning routine was a subtle but definite increase in my overall energy levels. The afternoon slump didn't vanish overnight, but it became significantly less severe. I wasn't fighting to keep my eyes open at 3 PM; I was actually doing things.Beyond just energy, I've noticed other benefits that feel genuinely impactful. My focus seems sharper, my mood is more stable, and I feel a greater sense of overall well-being. It's hard to describe, but it's like my internal battery is just... fuller. I feel more resilient, less easily drained by stress or a busy schedule. I even feel like my immune system has gotten a little boost, though that's harder to quantify.Taking the extract is simple – I just mix a small amount into warm water or tea in the morning. Yes, the taste is distinctively earthy and, well, ginseng-y, but it's not unpleasant, and the results are absolutely worth it. The fact that it's 100% Korean Red Ginseng extract from a reputable brand gives me confidence in what I'm putting into my body.If you're looking for a natural way to support your energy, focus, and overall vitality without the downsides of stimulants, I highly recommend giving this Korean Red Ginseng extract a try. It's become my secret weapon for feeling more like myself, even on the most demanding days. It's an investment in feeling good, and that's priceless.

This was the first time I've seriously used ginseng. I knew for a very long time that Korean Ginseng was legendary and was highly sought after in ancient Asian history. I don't like taking prescription medications and prefer to go about things more naturally now that I'm in my 50's. I've always suspected that OTC ginseng products were sketchy and they're often capsules or pills. This time I wanted to try out the real stuff, in extract form.The first time I opened it, it looked like sticky tar, I was familiar with this because I saw something similar as a plum product. This item comes with a 2pc plastic spoon you screw together and is a good quality spoon which I use to pull a spoonful and mix with boiling hot water. I tried it pure by dabbing a tiny amount on my finger and noticed the bitterness. Being Japanese-decent, I'm used to bitter tasting herbs so this didn't overwhelm me.After stirring it in a coffee mug, I tasted it. I decided it would be nicer to add some organic raw honey, about a teaspoon and was very happy with the results. I normally would crave soda, diet Pepsi or something similar but I haven't had much of it because this is so much better.I don't feel anything special honestly, it's nothing like a sugar or caffeine boost. The sensation is more like feeling more balanced. I wasn't craving snacks or any sweet drinks, my digestion seemed better, and because I wasn't snacking as much, my weight dropped a little, and it's only been about a week or so.Going back to digestion, I noticed I don't feel bloated all that much, and my visits to the bathroom are much more complete IYKWIM. I'm much more calm, I'm more focused without using caffeine or soda, I sleep much better for some reason and I feel a lot more relaxed. Again, the best word I can use to describe using this is feeling very balanced. Nothing overly anything, just very balanced.

good product!

I have been taking ginseng for years off and on. From powder pills and tablets of dubious quality and content to liquid extractions with water or alcohol used to make their products. Now on a health trek for letting myself go down hill for so long. I was looking for healthy things for my nafld'd liver and kept finding articles on ginseng that support a healthier liver and lifestyle. I bought 3 jars of this other top end ginseng extract brand, but when I went to their website, I found out they used 4-5 year old ginseng root, but in a round about way on their advertisement, they say 6 year old ginseng root is the best. Not that they uses it? At these prices, I need a clear and fact filled statement. CKJ says in their ads and on their website and on their product, WE USE 6 YEAR OLD GINSENG ROOT. PERIOD! I'm upset I got scammed out of 65-75 dollars for 3 jars of dubious quality product.I did further research and found this brand, CKJ on the internet, read reviews, etc. I kept looking for the best and it kept coming up;CKJ. Most trusted brand in Korea and Asia and Europe and the US,etc. Buying the 240 gram jar gets it in the same price range as the slightly inferior product. Both of these products are so far ahead of all the other products I've bought, it's like they are in two different classes and they are. It's just that CKJ is Superior and if you can buy the bigger jar of CKJ, it's comparably priced with the other product, it will last a long time. I drink this morning and night for health benefits. It's thick as tar, not runny and diluted, hard to get a exact measurement, don't really care, dissolves in my organic cacao, organic whole milk, spring water, mixes with molasses. What's not to like. I go to sleep better, wake up better, can't wait for my breakfast drink! Or my evening drink! LETS GO!
