Ingredient Overview
Notoginseng is known as San Qi in Chinese herbal practice. Its root and rhizome are used to prepare extracts characterised by their saponin content.
Notoginseng extract is made from Panax notoginseng root and rhizome. The root and rhizome supply the material traditionally recognised as San Qi. Processing these underground parts produces a concentrated ingredient centred on their saponin constituents. Notoginseng brings a specific Panax identity to botanical formulations, alongside the Asian and American ginseng species used elsewhere in the category.
