Yakkong Soybean from Jeongseon
About Yakkong Soybean
Yakkong soybeans contain 19.5 times more anthocyanins and isoflavones than regular soybeans. Traditionally used in oriental medicine, they have been valued since ancient times for treating and detoxifying various ailments, including colds and the flu.
In particular, black soybeans are rich in Glycitein, a powerful anticancer compound, and contain Langsanium at levels four times higher than regular soybeans — making them especially effective for anti-aging.
The saponins in black soybeans help neutralize harmful oxygen in the body, offering antioxidant benefits. They are also rich in unsaturated fatty acids, which help prevent cholesterol buildup and support healthy blood vessels.
The husk of Yakkong soybeans contains Glycerin and Genistin, offering antioxidant benefits and helping to inhibit the growth of cancer cells.
Phytic acid helps prevent skin aging caused by UV rays, offers antioxidant protection with vitamin E, and supports the reduction of sunspots and freckles. Retinoic acid regulates the growth and differentiation of epithelial tissue while protecting damaged skin by activating vitamin A.

About Yakkong Soybean + Panthenol
Panthenol acts as both a humectant, retaining moisture, and an emollient, hydrating, calming, and protecting the skin. It helps preserve water within the skin while defending against environmental aggressors and daily stressors.
Once absorbed, panthenol converts into vitamin B5, strengthening the skin barrier and enhancing hydration from within.
Black soybeans grown in cold, clean high altitudes are rich in proteins, vitamin B, and other nutrients that deliver deep hydration to the skin.
