| G115 - standardised and effective |
|
| The internal guidelines of standardisation for the G115®
ginseng extract used in Pharmaton® Capsules in order to provide the user
with an identical effectiveness of every capsule include: |
|
|
- The use of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer
- Partnership with farmers to help ensure the best growing conditions
- Training of farmers for the correct use of natural fertilizers and
fungicides and for the application of other good agricultural practices
- Analysis of botanical and physical characteristics of the ginseng
roots, as well as quantification of ginsenosides and control of potential
impurities.
|
| Quality of the roots |
|
As a crop, the quality of ginseng roots can vary from
one farm to another, and even from one harvest to another. Without proper
quality-assurance guidelines, contamination with toxic chemicals and pesticides
is also possible.
In fact, in 1990 Pharmaton typically rejected up to 80% of the batches of
roots it considered buying, due mainly to pesticide and toxic residues.
However, today, due to extensive efforts in working with farmers and supervising
the cultivation and harvesting processes, almost 90% of incoming ginseng
batches meet our high Pharmaton standards. |
|
| Standardisation |
|
| Every batch of G115® ginseng extract has the same
known and consistent level of the main active constituents. While many other
ginseng products have been shown to vary greatly in ginsenosides content
(and a few to have no ginsenosides at all), G115® always contains 4%
ginsenosides. |
|
| Analytical controls |
|
Validated analytical methods by high performance liquid
chromatography (HPLC ) are used to control the standardisation of the G115®
ginseng extract. The microbiological quality and the possible presence of
impurities such as pesticides, toxins, heavy metals and arsenic, are always
controlled. HPLC of the G115® ginseng extract shows a consistent profile
of the amount of the individual ginsenosides - it is so consistent from
batch to batch as to be referred to as its "chemical fingerprint."
At Pharmaton, we apply the current industrial guidelines of Good Manufacturing
Practices (GMP), as well as our own rigorous guidelines.
The composition of the G115® ginseng extract has been studied to produce
an optimal effect combined with an excellent tolerability. Pharmaton®
Capsules is the only product that combines the benefits of the standardised
ginseng G115® with vital vitamins, minerals and trace elements.
Pharmaton® Capsules is designed to improve your physical capabilities
and helps the body cope with exhaustion and fatigue caused by stress. G115®
influences the energy utilisation - thus reducing the fatigue - mainly as
a consequence of the increased oxygen uptake capacity. The extract also
acts on the central nervous system and helps minimise stress, physical and
mental tension. Furthermore, ginseng G115® positively affects the immune
system. |
