Ginseng Berry Extract Composition for Skin Aging and Fat Oxidation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current cosmetic products and obesity treatments lack effective methods for inhibiting skin aging, reducing wrinkles, and promoting fat oxidation, while existing obesity treatments often lead to weight regain and do not address the accumulation of body fat effectively.
Innovation Solution
A skin external composition and food composition containing ginseng berry extract, which promotes collagen production, inhibits MMP-1, and increases the expression of CPT-1 to enhance fat oxidation, thereby addressing skin aging, obesity, and weight management.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If ginseng root extracts or ginsenosides are used in cosmetic products, then skin care effects are achieved, but skin aging inhibition and wrinkle reduction effects are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and isolates specific active components (ginseng berry polysaccharides and ginseng berry extracts) from the ginseng plant, separating them from conventional ginseng root extracts. This extraction of specific functional components enables the achievement of superior skin aging inhibition and wrinkle reduction effects that were not obtainable from general ginseng extracts alone.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the source parameter from ginseng root to ginseng berry, and modifies the extraction parameters to obtain polysaccharide-rich extracts. This parameter change in material source and extraction method results in enhanced biological activity and improved skin aging inhibition effects compared to conventional ginseng root extracts.
2Quantity of substance
If ginseng seeds are harvested from 4-year-old plants, then good seeds are obtained, but ginseng root development is inhibited and red ginseng quality deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts active components from ginseng berries without requiring seed harvest, thereby avoiding the conflict between seed production and root development. By utilizing the berry extract directly, the invention eliminates the need to choose between harvesting seeds for quality or retaining them for root development, thus maintaining both seed quality potential and red ginseng quality simultaneously.
3Quantity of substance
If conventional obesity treatments are used, then weight loss is achieved temporarily, but weight regain occurs and body fat accumulation is not effectively addressed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the active ingredient parameter from conventional obesity drugs to ginseng berry extract, which contains unique polysaccharide components. This parameter change enables sustained fat oxidation and metabolic regulation, leading to long-lasting weight management effects rather than temporary weight loss, as the ginseng berry polysaccharides continuously promote fat metabolism and prevent weight regain.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The ginseng berry extract composition effectively inhibits skin aging, reduces wrinkles, and promotes fat oxidation, leading to improved skin health and weight management by enhancing collagen production and fat metabolism.
Implementation Method 1
promotes the production of collagen in the skin
Implementation Method 2
shows an MMP-1 inhibitory effect
Implementation Method 3
has skin-aging inhibitory and wrinkle-reducing effects, resulting from antioxidant effects
Implementation Method 4
DNA damage-protecting effects
Implementation Method 5
the effects of inhibiting melanin production and reducing pigmentation caused by UV radiation
Implementation Method 6
the effects of relieving dry skin symptoms and atopic symptoms by inducing and maintaining the normal differentiation of skin keratinocytes
Implementation Method 7
the effect of relieving acne and skin troubles by the regulation of sebum secretion
Implementation Method 8
makes complexion ruddy through the improvement of peripheral blood circulation
Implementation Method 9
increases the expression of a carnitine palmitoyl transterase-1 (CPT-1) gene, serves to transport fatty acids into mitochondria in fatty acid oxidation and promotes fat oxidation

AI summary
Disclosed herein is a. skin external composition containing ginseng berry extract. More specifically, disclosed is a skin external composition, which contains, as an active ingredient, ginseng berry extract having the specific components and compositions, among the above-ground parts of ginseng, and thus promotes the production of collagen in the skin, shows an MMP-I inhibitory effect and, at the same time, has skin-aging inhibitory and wrinkle-reducing effects, resulting from antioxidant effects and DNA damage-protecting effects. Also disclosed is a skin external composition, which contains, as an active ingredient, ginseng berry extract, which has a skin whitening effect resulting from the effects of inhibiting melanin production and reducing pigmentation caused by UV radiation, the effects of relieving dry skin symptoms and atopic symptoms by inducing and maintaining the normal differentiation of skin keratinocytes, the effect of relieving acne and skin troubles by the regulation of sebum secretion and an anti-inflammatory effect, and makes complexion ruddy through the improvement of peripheral blood circulation to make the skin clean and clear. Also disclosed is a food composition for reducing and preventing obesity, which contains, as an active ingredient, ginseng berry extract, which increases the expression of a carnitine palmitoyl transterase-1 (CPT-I) gene, serves to transport fatty acids into mitochondria in fatty acid oxidation and promotes fat oxidation.
