It also helps improve intellectual ability and immunity through its sustained nutritional enrichment and prevent and treat various kinds of bone diseases including osteoporosis in people of old ages.

Its popular products also include leech extract which won a DPRK patent for its efficacy for the treatment of cardiovascular and nervous system diseases and Dodder Potency Capsule with good invigorating effect.
