Jeju Cactus, food for next generation that cures 100 kinds of disease
Medical effect found in the stem
Jeju Cactus Museum CEO Kim Je-guk

Mysterious plant that lives for 100 years
Because of its palm-like shape, the native Jeju cactus is also called ‘'Palm Cactus’' as well as ‘'Baek-nyeon-cho (100 year plant)’' in Korean language. It can also mean that you can live for 100 years if you eat this. Jeju Cactus is rich in fiber, calcium and iron and it improves blood sugar in our body. As it is getting more popular for a healthy food, Jeju is strengthening the support to promote the related market.

Located in Oedolgae, Seogwipo City, Jeju, Jeju Cactus Museum has 1,000 cactus aged between 100 years to 300 years and visitors can appreciate their fruits and related information in museum. One might get surprised by the several meter tall of 300 year Jeju Cactuses in the museum. Also, its 6,611 square meter size of the museum has 600 kinds of rare cactuses as well as natural potted plants, plant on a stone, tangerine experience site and amaranth pathway where you can enjoy the fruit of amaranth. Jeju Cactus has 8 times more calcium than anchovy and 30% more dietary fiber than grains, vegetables and fruits and is excellent for constipation and bowel movement. There is 5 times more vitamin C in the cactus and it also contains 5% of phenol substance and flavonoid which are effective for anti-aging and cancer.

Kim said “"the medical effect of Jeju Cactus was already written in ancient medical books but it’'s not true that its appointed as a Natural Monument No.429 and Jeju Local Monument No.35. This is because some people want to use it for commercial purpose.” 

Reviving the true history and value of Jeju Cactus
Jeju Cactus is getting popular as its medicinal effect is being found day by day. For this reason, you can see numerous Jeju Cactus processed products in the market. But not many people know the fact that most Jeju Cactus related products in the market are not made of real Jeju Cactus but succulent plant cactus. Jeju Cactus is strong at change of environment and you do not need to give fertilizer.

It lives more than 100 years and some of them grows several meter high. According to ancient medical books, it helps a flow of energy and blood circulation and removes the toxins and it is also good for stomach ache and asthma. Jeju Cactus has a bigger stem than succulent plant cactus and the latter grow up to only a person’'s waist.

Kim said “the bud on the fruit of succulent plant cactus is green but the real Jeju Cactus is red. The flower of the former one drops in 10 days but the latter lasts up to 6 months. The fruit of the former get rotten if not picked up but the latter’'s runs the cycle automatically. The joint of the former has only one a year but the latter’'s is 3 to 5 and the fruit dropped on the soil become a seed to grow up to 2.5 to 3 meters. But the biggest difference between them is its medicinal effect. Kim said “I can tell you that most cactus related products in the market are not real Jeju Cactus. The effect they are commercializing is actually correct but they put different things into the packages because the real Jeju Cactus cannot be mass produced. And I assure you that Jeju Cactus (Baeknyeon-cho) only grows here in Jeju in the whole world.”

Kim’s family has managed and preserved Jeju Cactus for 6 generations and Kim has devoted to studying on its effect for 36 years. He opened a museum four years ago to let people know about the true habitat of Jeju Cactus. The effect of Jeju Cactus is in the body and the stem but not in the fruit. Its crude liquid also has a strong stickiness according to Kim. In the meantime, Kim obtained numerous patents to keep and pass down authentic Jeju Cactus.

Promoting Jeju Cactus as a local specialty
Kim opened Jeju Cactus Museum to provide proper information and to promote the products. Major broadcasting companies like KBS, MBC and SBS introduced the museum and numerous newspapers and magazines have also reported about the effect of real Jeju Cactus. Kim’s love of Jeju Cactus actually comes from his philosophy on healthy food because even the cure-all medicine can be useless if it is used in a wrong way.

You can taste Jeju Cactus juice tea for free at the museum and buy ‘crude liquid of the body’' and ‘'powder’. Kim added “"The Jeju Cactus need to be at least 100 years old to have medicinal effect. This makes other companies impossible to produce and supply the product. But I have know how and experience and I’'m determined to promote the Jeju Cactus to be a local specialty of Jeju.”
