Health drink for computer operators
Pyongyang, May 9 (KCNA) -- The Institute of Plant Resources under the Academy of Agricultural Science of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea has developed a health drink for computer operators. The drink, with Saponin extracted from fruits of a tree as its main ingredient, has a good effect on the prevention of and recovery from fatigue.
150 milliliters of the drink has been applied to each of several dozen computer operators twice a day for scores of days. The results show that the eye and mental strain has considerably been reduced. They say they do not feel tired though they operate computers for many hours.
The drink is a good tonic for the aged as it promotes metabolism and regeneration of cells in human body and reduces cholesterol in blood.
It, with a good odour and sweet and sour taste, has no side-effect on human body.
On a South Korean site they're selling a "Red Ginseng Drink" which "contains saponin has effects of anti-cancer medicine and it is manufactured as sweetened and aromatic drink for customer's easy drink." Lots of other Korean sites come up under Saponin + drink.
