Why there are no claims on this page
Panax ginseng is one of the most studied plants in the world, with over 2,000 years of documented use. But a GB health claim needs a scientific dossier that typically takes 5–10 years and well over £100,000 per claim, and claims for botanicals — ginseng included — have sat on the UK's "on hold" list unassessed since 2010. We do not use on-hold claims. Until one is authorised, the law is that we sell the plant on what it is, not on what it does.

What is in the tablet
The active ingredient is a concentrated extract of the root of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer. The extract is made at a 50:1 ratio — fifty grams of dried root reduced to one gram of extract — and each tablet carries 62.5mg of it. Multiply back up and that is 3,125mg of root per tablet, which is the figure in the product name.
The reason we spell this out is that "3125mg ginseng" on its own tells you very little. Some products state the extract weight, some the root equivalent, and some a number with no basis at all. To compare two ginseng tablets you need the extract weight and the ratio, or the root equivalent. This page gives you all three. Looking to buy Korean ginseng tablets UK on a like-for-like basis? That is the comparison to make.
Species and extract ratio — why both matter
| Species | Common name | Characteristic compounds | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer | Korean / Asian ginseng | Ginsenosides Rb1, Rg1, Rc, Re, Rd and others | This product. The most studied species |
| Panax quinquefolius | American ginseng | Different ginsenoside profile, higher Rb1 | Different species, different chemistry |
| Eleutherococcus senticosus | "Siberian ginseng" | Eleutherosides — not ginsenosides | Not a Panax. Not a true ginseng |
Ginsenosides are the triterpenoid saponins unique to the Panax genus; more than 150 have been identified and they are what the research literature on ginseng is about. A tablet labelled "ginseng" with no species stated could be any of the three plants above, and only two of them contain ginsenosides at all.
What the research has looked at
The following is background on the plant, not a claim for this product. Panax ginseng has been studied in placebo-controlled trials in healthy adults for its effects on cognitive performance during demanding mental tasks; the Northumbria University group found single doses of a standardised extract improved performance on sustained mental-arithmetic tasks and reduced blood glucose in healthy volunteers (Reay, Kennedy & Scholey, 2005), with the glucose effect examined further in a follow-up (Reay et al., 2006). Earlier work from the same group compared acute doses of ginseng and ginkgo on cognitive tasks (Scholey & Kennedy, 2002). The blood-glucose finding is also the reason for the diabetes-medication warning above.
The "adaptogen" description you will see on ginseng products comes from the traditional-use literature and from research on how the plant's compounds interact with the stress response. It is a description of a research concept, not an authorised effect. We use it here in that sense only.

Tablet excipients — full disclosure
A compressed tablet cannot be made from extract alone; it needs bulk to press and a lubricant so it releases from the die. Rather than hide them behind "tablet base", here is what they are and what they do. All are standard food-grade excipients permitted in UK food supplements.
| Excipient | Function | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Microcrystalline cellulose | Bulking agent | Purified plant cellulose fibre — gives the tablet body and lets it compress |
| Dicalcium phosphate | Bulking agent | A calcium phosphate salt — structural mass |
| Magnesium stearate | Anti-caking agent | Lubricant so the blend does not stick to the press; typically under 1% of tablet weight |
| Silicon dioxide | Anti-caking agent | Keeps the blend free-flowing before pressing; trace amount |
If you would rather have no excipients at all, that is a capsule product, not a tablet — see our herbal capsule range.
How to take
- 1–2 tablets daily with food and a glass of water. Most people take them in the morning.
- Do not exceed 2 tablets a day.
- Check your medication first — anticoagulants, diabetes medicines, stimulants, MAOIs and some antidepressants.

Frequently asked questions
What is in each tablet?
62.5mg of Panax ginseng root extract at a 50:1 concentration, which is equivalent to 3,125mg of dried root. Plus the tablet excipients: microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide. No gelatin, no artificial colours, no artificial flavours.
What does 3125mg actually mean?
It is the dried-root equivalent, not the weight of extract in the tablet. A 50:1 extract means 50g of root is concentrated into 1g of extract, so 62.5mg of extract represents 3,125mg of root. Always compare ginseng products on the same basis — extract weight and ratio, or root equivalent — not the headline number alone.
Is this Korean ginseng or Siberian ginseng?
Korean. The species is Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, which contains ginsenosides. Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) is a different genus with different compounds and is not a true ginseng.
Does it contain fillers?
Yes — it is a compressed tablet, and tablets cannot be made without them. Microcrystalline cellulose and dicalcium phosphate give the tablet its body; magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide let it be pressed. We list all four rather than pretend they are not there. If you want a filler-free format, our capsule range is the place to look.
Are the tablets vegetarian or vegan?
There is no gelatin and no animal-derived active ingredient. Whether the magnesium stearate is vegetable-sourced varies by batch — ask us and we will confirm for the batch you receive before we say vegan.
Does Panax ginseng have authorised UK health claims?
No. Claims for Panax ginseng sit on the UK's on-hold list for botanicals, which means they have not been assessed and authorised. We do not use on-hold claims, so this page describes the plant, the extract and the research, and makes no claim for the product.
How many tablets a day?
1 to 2 tablets daily with food. Most people take them in the morning. Do not exceed 2.
Can I take it with medication?
Check with your GP or pharmacist first. Panax ginseng may interact with warfarin and other anticoagulants, diabetes medicines (it can lower blood glucose), stimulants, MAOIs and some antidepressants.
Is it safe in pregnancy?
No. Not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and not for under 18s.
How should I store it?
Sealed, cool, dry and out of light. Best-before is on the pouch.
Which pack size should I start with?
180 tablets is three to six months at one or two a day. 365 is a year at one a day and better value per tablet; 500 is the best retail price per tablet.
Do you sell Korean ginseng tablets wholesale UK?
Yes. The 25,000-tablet bulk pack is stocked, and trade quantities in between are available on request. Same UK dispatch timescale as retail.
Can I get the specification?
Yes. Supplier specification for the extract — ratio, species, heavy metals and microbiology — is available on request with your order number.
How fast is delivery?
Same-day dispatch before 3:30pm Monday to Friday from Southend-on-Sea. Free UK delivery on orders over £10.
What is the returns policy?
Unopened pouches can be returned within 30 days. Opened food products are non-returnable for food safety reasons. Damaged on arrival is replaced.
