Extend your healthy life expectancy!
The benefits of UKOGIN (Powdered Siberian ginseng extract)

Benefit 1

UKOGIN helps
your body exercise.

“I thought I’d go walking every day, but I soon got tired and gave up.” “I quickly get out of breath when I ride my bicycle.” We often get such reports from customers who want to do regular exercise, but cannot continue due to a lack of physical fitness. Bizen Chemical’s functional material “UKOGIN” is the perfect answer to their problems.
Benefit 2

The widely recognized
power of Siberian ginseng

UKOGIN is an easy-to-use powdered functional material extracted from Siberian ginseng, which is known as one of the four famous varieties of carrots. Siberian ginseng has a proven track record as a natural remedy. In Japanese herbal medicine, the root stock and bark are often referred to as “Shigoka” and “Gokahi” respectively. Its benefits have been recognized since ancient times, and it is even listed in the earliest Chinese “Shennong Ben Cao Jing” book of medicine.
Around the year 1960, the former Soviet Union actively conducted research on this powerful raw material for use in medicine. During the 1980 Moscow Olympics, it became well known that Siberian ginseng was being used to improve the performance of the Soviet team, which triggered a new wave of popularity around the world.
Benefit 3

100% Siberian
ginseng extract

We succeeded in extracting only the active ingredient, which provides the same benefits as consuming the whole Siberian ginseng. This process uses our proprietary hybrid manufacturing technology, which can produce 100% Siberian ginseng extract powder without the need for any additives.

The Expected Effects of UKOGIN
(Powdered Siberian Ginseng Extract)

Effect 1

UKOGIN turns on
your “metabolism master switch”!

Studies have shown that UKOGIN activates AMPK inside the cells.
AMPK is an important enzyme that helps the body produce energy, which is why it is often referred to as the “metabolic master switch.” (AMPK: AMP-activated protein kinase)

Once AMPK (P-AMPK) is activated as the “metabolism master switch” turns on, it inhibits the enzyme acetyl-CoA carboxylase that provides the substrate for the biosynthesis of fatty acids.

Blocks the fatty acid biosynthesis pathway

Shifts toward energy production

By blocking the fatty acid biosynthesis pathway, the cell shifts toward energy production.

This mechanism works to prevent the body from running out of energy and is usually triggered under stressful conditions such as hypoxia and malnourishment. UKOGIN presses the “metabolic master switch” to allow the active production of energy even when the cell is not under stress.

UKOGIN boosts energy production! Helps you exercise more!
Effect 2

UKOGIN also turns on
the body’s “obesity suppression switch”!

Studies have shown that UKOGIN can shrink fat cells that have become enlarged (cell hypertrophy).

It has also been discovered that UKOGIN reduces the amount of PPARγ activation in cells. PPARγ has been shown to be a factor related to cellular differentiation and hypertrophy of fat cells.
It is thought that a decrease in PPARγ activation will lead to the suppression of fat cell differentiation and hypertrophy.
