In traditional Korean medicine, summer is the season when one's energy is severely depleted as people tend to sweat a lot even with little movement. As you are more likely to feel fatigued and lose vitality, replenishing one's energy is crucial. According to Donguibogam, a traditional Korean medical encyclopedia, red ginseng is recommended for vitality. The book says red ginseng slows the aging process and boosts one's energy, helping you live longer. It's effective in restoring vitality and alleviating fatigue. Red ginseng is made by steaming ginseng for approx. 3 hours without peeling it and then letting it dry slowly. This steaming and drying process reduces ginseng's sugar level while creating an active compound, which enhances its efficacy. Saponin, which is abundant in red ginseng, is known for boosting one's immunity and restoring vitality. Notably, ginsenoside helps with digestion, metabolism, and the absorption of nutrients, thereby restoring one's energy. SPA 1978 Donginbi, run by the premium red ginseng brand Jung Kwan Jang, is a specialized spa facility that uses beneficial red ginseng.
