Background:  Used throughout Asia for thousands of years as a multifunctional herbal remedy, Ginger Root contains beneficial nutrients such as calcium, phosphorus, and potassium. Believed to protect the immune system from sickness, Chinese sailors consumed Ginger Root on long voyages to battle nutrition deficiencies.

What is BT Technology?  A process where low concentrations of botanical extracts are treated with specially selected vegetable sourced enzymes to deliver enhanced performance and activity to the skin.  The enzymes breakdown the extracts (BioTransform), allowing for both increased compatibility with the skin and to mimic natural skin conditions—BioTransformed Technology does not interfere with normal skin function. The activity of BT Technology extracts are optimized by using an extensive filtration and purification process, ultimately contributing to increased cellular bioavailability and the functionality of active components.
