How Many Different Ginsenosides？

After years of research, experts and scholars generally believe that Ginseng Extract Powder includes more than 50 kinds of ginsenosides, including comprehensive saponins and monomer saponins Rb1, Re, Rg1, Rg2, Rg3, Rh1, Rh2, etc.

Due to the mutual influence and restriction of various saponin monomers, the unique medicinal and health-care properties of various monomeric saponins cannot be displayed, which greatly reduces the application value. Therefore, in order to fully improve the finishing level of ginseng and tap its potential medical and health value, the production research and promotion of the extraction technology of ginsenoside monomers is particularly urgent and important.

The four ginsenoside monomers, Rh2, Rg3, Rg2, and Rh1, were analyzed for their effects.

Ginsenoside Rh2 has significant anticancer activity and can enhance the function of normal cells. It has a very good anticancer effect and is known as a major discovery of natural anticancer drugs. The latest research shows that Rh2 can induce the differentiation of cancer cells, make cancer cells naturally apoptotic, turn cancer cells into normal cells, inhibit tumor proliferation, inhibit the invasion and metastasis of cancer cells, and slow down the division and growth of cancer cells.

Ginsenoside Rg3 can inhibit the adhesion of tumor cells, infiltrate and prevent the formation of new blood vessels. Thereby inhibiting tumor growth, spread and metastasis, with significant anticancer function. It can significantly improve the leukopenia caused by radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery, and make the hemorheological parameters tend to be normal.

Rg2 has a significant effect on myocardial ischemic shock. It is an essential main ingredient for the treatment of myocardial ischemic shock, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris and arrhythmia drugs.

Rh1 has significant therapeutic effect and biological activity on hepatitis, hepatotoxicity and liver cancer.

Summary

With the deepening of scientific research and the continuous development of production technology, ginsenoside monomers' medical and health effects are becoming more and more abundant. The anticancer and anti-tumor effects of Ginseng Extract Powder will be developed more and the active ingredients will be higher. Not only that, it will also be developed into health food and functional food in the future.
