Manufacturing Method Dedicated Manufacturing Method- For health drinks, the extraction effects are maximized through a 30 hr low-temperature extraction and 36–48 hr (depending on the season) of brewing. Instead of simply brewing through heat, we manufacture our products for an extended period according to our patented extraction method and academic-industrial technology transfer. Moreover, we are also striving to improve our method (Transfer of extraction technology: Bio-Functional Food Department at Jeonju University). In the case of health pills, these products are manufactured at a special institution equipped with GMP facilities.

Fat Removal Equipped with Chicken Feet Fat Removal Technology- Chicken feet, a dish served in diverse ways (achyranthes root chicken feet jelly, etc.) that are popularized through the media, contains a large amount of animal fat.

Unlike our competitors, Himchanmaru owns the recipe and technology for removing bad oil, which allows us to manufacture healthy drinks free from saturated fat. In short, Bongchu Drink has 0% cholesterol content (refer to the product display).
