Black ginseng
▪ What is black ginseng?
Red ginseng refers to ginseng that has turned red after being steamed and dried two to three times, and black ginseng refers to ginseng that has become black after being steamed and dried nine times.
▪ Characteristic of black ginseng
Black ginseng becomes around 10 times higher in Saponin content (Ginsenoside Rg3) through the process of Red-to-Black transformation, which is known to have an anticancer effect.
In the process of being made of black ginseng, starch particles of black ginseng absorb moisture in the form of liquid and sol and become gelatinized, which helps to absorb digestion better than white ginseng or red ginseng.
Black ginseng has been confirmed as an official ginseng type since January 2012 in Korea.
Rg3 in black ginseng has been used in the treatment of cancer patients with clinical approval as an anti-cancer drug called "Shenyi" in China.

Black Garlic
▪ What is black garlic?
Black garlic is simply fresh garlic (Allium sativum L.) that has been fermented and aged
under specialized temperature and humidity conditions without grilling or boiling.
▪ Characteristics of black garlic
During fermentation and aging period, sugars and amino acids in garlic itself react to form melanoidins, and black garlic is completed.
Black garlic loses its spiciness and has a sour sweetness at a jelly-like texture because allicin, the spicy component of garlic, decreases during fermentation and aging.
During fermentation and aging, the content of phytochemicals such as total polyphenol, flavonoid, and S-allyl cysteine (SAC), diallyl disulfide, which are major functional ingredients, is increased compared to fresh garlic. Therefore, it has 10 times higher antioxidant properties than fresh garlic.
