- Its 640 mg of panax ginseng (filed by NIH under ginseng) is higher than 91% of the 235 ginseng products that print an amount; 21 list more.
The NIH database records one serving a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
