2. Product Description
Dandelion Extract is a natural herbal extract derived from the whole plant (leaves, roots and flowers) of Taraxacum officinale Weber, a perennial herb of the Asteraceae family widely distributed in temperate and subtropical regions around the world. With a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine, European herbal medicine and Native American remedies, this extract is produced through advanced low-temperature extraction, concentration and spray-drying processes, which effectively retain the bioactive constituents of dandelion. Its key active components include flavonoids (such as luteolin, quercetin), triterpenoids, phenolic acids, inulin, vitamins (A, C, K) and minerals (potassium, calcium, iron). The extract appears as a fine yellow to yellowish green powder with a characteristic natural herbal aroma, good fluidity, slightly soluble in water and easily soluble in ethanol. Our Dandelion Extract is manufactured in strict compliance with international quality standards (USP, Eur.Ph.) and safety regulations, with no added preservatives, artificial pigments or harmful substances, ensuring high purity, stable activity and safety. Its remarkable liver-protective, diuretic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties have made it widely used in health care, cosmetics, food & beverages and herbal supplements.
