JEJU, South Korea, Nov. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Professor Narayanan Parameswaran's team at the Department of Physiology at Michigan State University announced the results of a study that showed that consuming red ginseng is effective for bone and intestinal health through intestinal microbiota balance at the Korea Ginseng Society International Conference held from October 27 (Sun) to 30 (Wed).
Prior to this study, the Michigan State University research team reported in 2023 in the JGR (Journal of Ginseng Research, I.F 6.8) that intestinal microbiota balance is an important regulatory factor for bone health. After administering antibiotics to a mouse model for two weeks and observing for four weeks, it was confirmed that an imbalance in the composition of the intestinal microflora caused leaky gut syndrome (a condition in which the intestinal mucosal cells are damaged and the barrier is weakened, allowing various substances to pass through, causing symptoms such as gas, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal bloating, and indigestion) and bone loss.
The research team administered red ginseng extract to a mouse model whose intestinal microflora balance was disrupted by antibiotics for four weeks and confirmed the effects of improving barrier function and bone density. As a result of the study, the experimental group that consumed red ginseng showed an increase in the diversity of beneficial intestinal bacteria and an improvement in barrier health, which reduced the symptoms of leaky gut syndrome. This suggests that improving the intestinal environment also had a positive effect on bone health.
Professor Parameswaran said, "There have been previous research results showing that red ginseng and ginseng help with bone health, but this is the first to show that they help with the balance of intestinal microorganisms, thereby preventing bone loss and leaky gut syndrome." He added, "It is significant that we have confirmed the beneficial effect of red ginseng on gut-bone axis in multiple models of bone loss and the potential for red ginseng to be developed as a treatment for osteoporosis in the future."
At this international academic conference of the Korea Ginseng Society held in Jeju Island, Korea, researchers from leading international universities and hospitals in the US, Korea, China, and Japan presented research results on a total of 30 topics, including inhibition of colon cancer cell growth effects of immunity against respiratory viruses improvement of endometriosis.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety of Korea recently officially recognized the functionality of red ginseng in helping control blood sugar levels. This has been scientifically proven through long-term clinical research by 'JungKwanJang', a global representative comprehensive health brand that has ranked first in the global ginseng retail market for 10 consecutive years. JungKwanJang confirmed that consuming red ginseng reduces not only fasting blood sugar but also postprandial blood sugar and glycated hemoglobin, and scientifically proved that it controls blood sugar through various indicators such as insulin resistance and glucose metabolism control through an increase in GLP-1 (a hormone involved in blood sugar control and appetite suppression).
'JungKwanJang' is the No. 1 red ginseng brand trusted worldwide based on long-standing tradition and strict quality control, and ranked first in the global 'herbal health supplement' retail market compiled by Euromonitor International, a global market research institute. In addition, it has established an R&D center in Fullerton, near LA, USA, beyond Korea, and is striving to develop products that meet the health needs and tastes of local Americans.

LOS ANGELES, March 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- CASEKOO, a leader in innovative mobile lifestyle accessories, today announced the launch of LinKOO, a groundbreaking phone case featuring the world's first open clasp system. Celebrating the vibrant energy and happiness of Spring, LinKOO is designed for the season's getaways, outdoor adventures, and everyday moments of delight.
The magic of LinKOO happens when the chain comes off. Engineered with a patented clasp at the base of the case, it securely holds a chain or wristlet to complement any spring look. But the true innovation? The clasp folds completely flat against the phone when not in use—instantly transforming from a statement accessory into a sleek, pocket-friendly case built for life in motion.
"Spring represents a time of renewal and reconnection, so we designed LinKOO to be the perfect companion for the season's adventures," said Ralph, founder of CASEKOO. "We've engineered a clasp that simply 'disappears' when you don't need it—giving our community the freedom to move seamlessly from a morning run to an afternoon of shopping, all while keeping their style and their phone protected. But what truly excites us is how LinKOO sparks curiosity. It's designed to be noticed—inviting others to come closer, to ask what it is, and to start a conversation. Because the best connections happen when we're open to them."
A Joyful, Adventure-Ready Design
Just as the season calls for versatility and a touch of whimsy, the LinKOO case is built to adapt. Key features include:
World's First Open Clasp System: A unique, hinged clasp that opens to hold a chain and closes to lay flush against the case, offering a clean, uninterrupted profile.
Transformative 2-in-1 Design: Effortlessly switches between a secure chain-carry mode for hands-free convenience and a compact traditional case for slipping into a pocket or bag.
Spring-Ready Style & Protection: Constructed with a durable, impact-resistant frame and available in a range of fresh, seasonal colors and finishes to match any spring wardrobe.
Interchangeable Chain Compatibility: Works seamlessly with CASEKOO's collection of chains and straps, allowing users to mix and match for a personalized look that fits every spring adventure.
Playful Extras & Availability
Embracing the spirit of discovery, the LinKOO launch invites users to refresh their style for the new season. The CASEKOO LinKOO case is now available in Vital Orange for the iPhone 17 Pro Max, with a full range of colors and finishes rolling out in late May. To inspire endless mix-and-match possibilities, complementary straps are currently included with every LinKOO case purchase.
