简要总结
Consumption of Korean ginseng red berry supplement improves plasma anti-oxidant capacity, which is not due to the inherent anti-oxidant capacity of the ginseng supplement itself. Whilst the underlying mechanism is currently unknown, findings from this pilot study suggest that ginsenoside metabolites may activate cellular anti-oxidant systems to up-regulate anti-oxidant enzymes and therefore serve to protect cells and tissues against oxidative stress.
