Purpose: This study was carried out to investigate antioxidant activities of Sunsik supplemented with cultivated wild ginseng powder and its applicability as a beauty food. Methods: After obtaining extracts from cultivated wild ginseng powder and Sunsik using 70% ethanol, the antioxidant activity of Sunsik supplemented with cultivated wild ginseng powder was measured using the radical scavenging activities of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). The contents of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, and sodium were also measured by an inductively coupled plasma method. The mean and standard deviation were calculated using SPSS statistics 21. ANOVA was performed for each test group and Duncan's multiple range test was performed at the significance level of 5%. Results: Total polyphenol contents of Sunsik with 0.6% 15-year cultivated wild ginseng powder (15yrWS0.6) were determined to be the highest one in all the samples, as was the DPPH radical scavenging activity of 15yrWS0.6. Conclusion: Therefore, this study demonstrates that Sunsik possesses antioxidant activity, suggesting that supplemented with cultivated wild ginseng powder can act as an effective functional inner beauty food for health.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
