Constant stress and a lack of energy are part and parcel of the modern lifestyle of having it all, an education, a career, a family, and of course leisure. In order to make living life to the fullest a reality for Sri Lankan men, Mega Lifesciences introduced Ginsomin.
Containing authentic Korean Panax Ginseng extract, which is standardised in Switzerland and subjected to a specialised decontamination process using patented flachman technology, and a whole host of essential vitamins and minerals to both relieve stress and rejuvenate, Ginsomin is the perfect solution for the man on the go.
Ginsomin Brand Manager Lalith Dias said: “Ginseng, in Chinese, roughly translates to ‘the essence of man’ and this encapsulates the Ginsomin promise. Ginsomin enables men, restoring their energy and giving them the ability to cope with the numerous daily stressors of their life. Whatever walk of life they come from, whether it is a student facing that crucial exam, the nervous new bridegroom, a careerist fighting his way up the corporate ladder or a man of any age hoping to boost his fitness, Ginsomin will help them unleash their potential.
“One capsule after breakfast and you can get more done at both work and home, build better relationships with colleagues and family, and essentially lead an all rounded, healthy and happy life.”
Ginseng is a medicinal plant that has been known to humans for over 4,000 years and has been used in traditional Chinese, Korean and Japanese medicine. Much research has been carried out during the past three decades on its medicinal effects.
Panax Ginseng, not to be confused with the other varieties of Ginseng, contains Ginsenosides which have multiple salutary effects. Found exclusively in Panax Ginseng, Ginsenosides act as a stress buffer, inhibiting the debilitating effects of stress and leaving you calm and collected under pressure. They also act as stimulants, improving physical capacity, alertness, concentration, vitality, potency and libido.
Ginsomin also contains a wide range of vitamins and minerals essential for a healthy body and mind. These include Beta-carotene, the naturally occurring form of Vitamin A, which enhances cell growth and reverses aging while natural Vitamin-E protects against cell damage and is two times more effective than the synthetic version.
Vitamin-C repairs tissue and improves adrenal gland functions while Selenium which is a well recognised antioxidant protects against disease and inhibits aging, and boosts the immune system. Most recently, Ginsomin has been proven to hasten recovery from common illnesses such as the common cold and the flu and is ideal for those prone to catching general illnesses.
Mega Lifesciences Country Manager Praveen Viswakumaran said: “Mega Lifesciences is committed to providing quality products to consumers. At Mega, we care, which is why we innovate products like Ginsomin so we can make people’s lives better. Ginsomin was the first Ginseng product to enter the Sri Lankan market and is the only stress and fatigue reliever of this kind available here. It also has a large international presence. Every day is a race and Ginsomin helps you run that extra mile.”
While the salutary effects of Ginseng have been scientifically proven and are thus beyond reproach, there are many products that claim to contain Ginseng extract but which often contain little or no Ginseng at all.
These Ginseng-impersonating products can be dangerous for human consumption, leading to further ill effects rather than recovery.
