Abstract

Ginseng jellies and candies were prepared by adding ginseng extracts as final concentration of $0.5\%\;and\;1\%$ for jellies and $0.7\%$ for candies. Feeding experiments of the diets containing ginseng extract were carried out for evaluation in respects of growth rate, feed efficiency ratio, organ weight change, hematocrit value, and blood cholesterol content by feeding rats for 6 week. The results of ginseng supplemented diets were not significantly different from those for the control. Liver, spleen and kidney cells of ginseng products feeding rats appeared no abnormalities in comparison with the control rats.
