Top Ginseng Supplement Brands in Canada 

Although Canada is one of the largest North American ginseng producers and exporters, Canadian people are not used to take fresh or dry ginseng root directly and they love ginseng supplements that contain ginseng extract standardized to a high level of ginsenosides, the main active compounds in ginseng.

Typically, Canadian people love Panax ginseng (Asian ginseng) extract supplements. North American ginseng in Canada is considered more yin in medicinal property, and it is used to reduce heat in the body and promote fluid production, e.g., to fight infections such as colds and flu. Panax ginseng is considered more yang and warm in nature and it is used to raise heat in body, e.g., to increase energy.

Canada companies focus on offering Panax ginseng supplements. Below are three top ginseng supplement brands in Canada.

Jamieson Korean Red Ginseng

Jamieson is one of the most trusted brands of vitamins and supplements in Canada. The company is proud of its enrollment in TRU-ID certification that certifies that the products have real ingredients. Jamieson has a wide range of products including natural health products, vitamins, supplements, and health foods, and its products are distributed in over 45 countries.

Jamieson Korean red ginseng is standardized to 20% total ginsenosides. One bottle has 100 caplets and each caplet contains 55 mg of Korean red ginseng extract, with 11 mg of total ginsenosides. This ginseng product is priced at CAD$ 22.99.

Organika Korean Red Ginseng

Organika Korean red ginseng is developed by Organika Health Products Inc., which was established in 1990. The company offers hundreds of health products to the market. Organika Korean Red Ginseng is made of six-year-old root sourced from Korea. Each capsule contains 500 mg of Korean red ginseng powder, with 25 mg ginsenosides, as claimed by the manufacturer. One bottle contains 200 capsules and it is recommended to take one capsule twice daily, so it means to be a 100-day supply. One bottle costs CAD$30.99.

Redsenol Noble Ginsenosides

Redsenol Noble GinsenosidesRedsenol is an outstanding Canadian ginseng and ginsenosides brand featuring a high amount of rare ginsenosides. The research team devoted to ginsenoside research for over 16 years, and developed core technologies to produce rare ginsenosides in large amounts.

Redsenol goes much further in the ginsenoside research. Most manufacturers in the ginseng field only grasp the technologies to extract naturally occurring ginsenoside, known as prototype ginsenosides in ginseng. These prototype ginsenosides are high-molecular-weight and hardly absorbable, and some steamed Korean red ginseng may contain only rare ginsenosides Rg3, Rg5, Rh1. Incredibly, Redsenol contains sixteen types of rare ginsenosides and the Redsenol research team grasp core technologies to convert naturally occurring ginsenosides into less polar rare ginsenosides. These rare ginsenosides including Rh3, Rk1, Rk2, Rk3, aPPD, aPPT, etc. are far more potent than prototype ginsenosides. Redsenol rare ginsenosides products are also available on Amazon.

Amazingly, the rare ginsenosides content in Redsenol-1 noble ginsenosides capsules reaches 20%, far more than its competition. Redsenol is a buy choice for people who hate to consume ginseng products without true ginseng or only with total ginsenosides and really hope to find a rare ginsenoside product.

One Redsenol item contains three small boxes and 270 capsules in total. Each capsule contains 60 mg of rare ginsenosides and taking two capsules three times daily can provide 360 mg of rare ginsenosides.

The price for the Redsenol-1 is 379 Canadian dollars. It seems much more expensive than similar products. However, what Redsenol offers are highly bioactive and absorbable rare ginsenosides rather than total ginsenosides, and it is good value for money in consideration of the active ingredients it offers.
