Fermented ginger containing enzymes fermented with koji mold.
Ginger koji is a fermented ingredient made by fermenting ginger with koji mold, resulting in a product with increased gingerol content due to fermentation. It also contains α-amylase and protease activities derived from koji mold, which can support the digestive enzymes that decrease with age and the food enzymes that tend to be lacking due to the Westernization of diets when consuming ginger koji. Human intervention studies have confirmed that the recovery effect on body temperature is enhanced compared to regular ginger. Additionally, the α-amylase and protease activities derived from koji mold have been shown to have meat tenderizing effects. New data has been obtained for osteoporosis prevention, and it can be used as a femcare and femtech ingredient in combination with measures for cold sensitivity and dieting. *As of 2023, it is available for consultation as a functional labeling compliant ingredient. *For more details, please visit our company website or feel free to contact us.
