Red Ginseng Extremely Popular in Korea
The recently published statistics reveal ginseng products to dominate Korea’s health food market. Totally over 42 percent of the market was occupied by red ginseng products known to be effective to reduce blood problems, strengthen the immune system, and to reduce stress and fatigue.
Ginseng products held the top spot on the statistics also last year, but now the popularity rose 37 percent from those numbers. In the latest results aloe products came second and nutrition supplements like vitamins and calcium were at third place.
The sales of health food supplements have been said to be determined by home shopping marketing and word of mouth, from which red ginseng products have benefited from both. The statistics were provided by the Korea Food and Drug Administration.
