【Product Introduction】
Pueraria lobata extract is derived from the root of Pueraria lobata, commonly known as kudzu. It contains key bioactive compounds such as puerarin, isoflavones, and flavonoids. The extract is traditionally used in herbal medicine for its potential benefits in cardiovascular health, liver support, and menopausal symptom relief. It is widely incorporated into dietary supplements and functional food formulations.
【Production Process】
The process begins with the selection of mature kudzu roots, which are washed and dried to reduce moisture content. The dried roots are then ground into a coarse powder before undergoing solvent extraction, typically using water or ethanol, to concentrate the bioactive components. The extract is then filtered, concentrated, and spray-dried into a fine powder. Finally, the product is tested for purity and potency before being packaged.
