Smilax China Extract

Smilax china extract is derived from the dried rhizome of the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Smilax china (commonly known as "Jin Gang Ci" or "Jin Gang Gen"), and is refined using modern plant extraction technology. The Smilax china extract is a uniform brownish-yellow to brownish-brown powder with good flowability and no clumping. It has the characteristic natural aroma of Smilax china rhizome and is odorless. Temperature, pressure, and extraction time are strictly controlled during the extraction process to maximize the retention of effective active ingredients. Its rhizome naturally accumulates a variety of effective components, mainly including steroidal saponins, flavonoids, polyphenols, and β-sitosterol. Astilbene is a core quality indicator component recognized by the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Industry production often uses water extraction and ethanol reflux extraction methods, combined with macroporous adsorption resin for fine purification, producing extracts in various conventional ratios from 10:1 to 30:1. It can also be used to specifically enrich total flavonoids and total saponins, achieving an effective ingredient content of 20%-30% after purification. This extract is mild in nature and has a high safety factor. Acute toxicity tests have verified that it has no obvious toxic side effects. It is a natural plant material with excellent stability and applicability.

1. Anti-inflammatory & soothing properties: Steroidal saponins and flavonoids contained in the extract can effectively soothe inflammatory responses and physical discomfort, and relieve discomforts caused by joint and physical strain.

2. Natural bacteriostatic activity: It has a certain inhibitory effect on a variety of common pathogenic microorganisms, restrains bacterial growth, and delivers basic natural antibacterial protection performance.

3. Metabolism regulation: The active ingredients assist in regulating basic human metabolism, support the normal metabolic circulation of sugar and lipids, maintain metabolic homeostasis, and protect basic cardiovascular health.
