Hello Michael, Thank you for contacting us! Korean Ginseng is also known as Panax Ginseng, Korean Red Ginseng, Asian Ginseng, or Korean Panax Ginseng. Unfortunately, we have no way of determining which one is better than another for a particular individual's needs as the different names often refer to the same kind of ginseng. We apologize for any disappointment in regards to this matter. If there is anything else we can further assist you with, please let us know. Have a wonderful day! -Rubi

I think all the pea proteins come from the same place in China based on my search on Amazon. Funny, we're all buying the same thing under different brand names with different prices. If anyone finds one "sourced" in the US, please post.

Frustrating, isn't it? I've been searching like crazy for buckwheat noodles that don't actually contain wheat gluten myself. I have to think though that the product name is acceptable in the same way 'chocolate chip pancakes' or 'cinnamon rice chex' are acceptable names. They just mean that the ingredient is included. (Still a bummer though!)

Thanks for this information, I am specifically looking for seeds organic NOT from China. Is it just me or is it not very strange that one cannot find pumpkin seeds from the US? Even more curious is why they are almost always from China. I have found them from Mexico but not organic.

Do not use this brand, Its seriously less effective and gross compared to other brands. I have tried both and there is something wrong with these ones, they are from China so it makes me wonder if they actually have chemicals on them or something like that. I use Nutrioil now, I only bought these once and ended up throwing the rest of the bag away. YOu can use good soap nuts as you look for recipies for soap, shampoo, dishwasher soap, all kinds of things. :)

Kelly, If you look for studies (rather than claims about non-existent studies) you'll get to the bottom of this. If interested, go to the website of ORYZA, the patent holder for rice-based formulas. The Japanese clinical studies were all based on rice--not comparisons to other types of extracts. The only known comparison study was done is a laboratory, and the results are totally irrelevant, yet this study is the basis for false claims about "clinical" superiority of rice ceramides. A translation of this work appears on the Oryza website. Check it out & you'll see!

How can an edible product from China be trusted? And who believes something from China is organic? I don't trust this product as the chinese will purposely poison consumers and attempt to poison.

I didn't know there were different types of chamomile flowers. But I suppose that if there are diferent types of roses then it makes sense.I have only recently started to learn about bulk teas. I would be interested in learning the answer also.

I would be inclined to mistrust the author of that particular recipe. Kochujang is totally not the same thing as miso paste. Doenjang, another Korean product, made from fermented soybeans like miso, is more like miso paste, but even still, not quite the same.

I can't find any place that tells you what other ingredients are in the NOW brand. This brand tell everything about what it has and hasn't got in it. I feel this brand is purer. I don't trust brands that wont show all info. I normally trust Now brand but not this time.

I just spoke with Tom at Life Extension. He didn't say corn derived. He said it was synthetically derived. I tried a "natto" derived supplement and experienced terrible stomach upset. Even though it's synthetically derived, I consider it the lesser of two evils.

Got Matcha is top quality too. Plus, they have organic, black label...top quality. get on their mailing list for occasional specials. The owner answers the phone if you call. He also answers your questions.

I prefer the PS may mean Professional strength. It has more (double) bromelain (from pineapple core) which is more natural and less pancreatin which is from animal. I originally bought the PS and then I bought the N but my wife didn't like the the N as much. I prefer PS I think it might be the original formula???

I was just listening to a podcast with the health consultant for this products manufacturer. There is NO difference between any of the products. If you look at the ingredient list, it's exactly the same. The reason they packaged each of the 3 differently is so that buyers wouldn't be confused as to which problem they were trying to address. This makes sense. If you're 25 and suffering from PMS, you're not likely to buy a product designed for menopause. So they called it MacaHarmony. If you're say 65 and past menopause, you probably not thinking about a product for PRE-menopause. What's interesting is that this doctor said that this particular maca product has different actions on a woman's body depending on what she needs....even though it is the same ingredient. That's what "adaptogens" do, adapt to individual needs. Hope this helps.

I agree. Thai Kitchen or Native Forest are better choices (although Thai Kitchen isn't a 'healthy' brand per se). I buy Whole Foods brand (organic) by the case from one of their local stores. Much cheaper and better than Natural Value.

Kelly, The product used to be rice derived but we moved to wheat because all of our customers gave feedback that it was more effective. I checked out the title and bullet points to confirm it was switched to wheat. I do see in fact the description still has 1 rice notation in it and I will update it ASAP... Thanks for pointing this out for me !
