Mulberry Leaf Extract

Xi'an Tihealth is a premier global B2B supplier of highly purified Mulberry Leaf Extract (Morus alba L.). We rigorously source our raw materials from the first to third tender leaves harvested during the late silkworm stage, ensuring an exceptionally high natural accumulation of bioactives while strictly adhering to GAP-certified, heavy-metal-free cultivation standards.

Utilizing our proprietary low-temperature dynamic countercurrent extraction combined with advanced fermentation technologies, we successfully isolate the plant's most critical therapeutic alkaloid: 1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ), alongside synergistic flavonoids and polysaccharides. Standardized to a pharmaceutical-grade purity (up to 5% DNJ via HPLC), our highly stable extract exhibits profound clinical efficacy as a natural α-glucosidase inhibitor, delaying carbohydrate absorption and preventing postprandial glucose spikes. It serves as a foundational Active Ingredient for advanced blood-sugar management nutraceuticals, low-GI functional foods, and metabolic wellness formulations.

Dynamic Countercurrent Extraction

Standard high-temperature decoctions destroy up to 50% of the active alkaloids. Tihealth utilizes advanced low-temperature dynamic countercurrent extraction. This thermodynamic innovation ensures a ≥95% retention rate of the heat-sensitive 1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) and preserves the structural integrity of the synergistic flavonoids.

Enzymatic Fermentation Protocol

To maximize bioavailability, we subject the raw leaf powder to controlled fermentation using specific cellulase-producing bacteria. This biological process effectively breaks down the rigid cellulose cell walls, vastly improving the extraction yield of intracellular polysaccharides without harsh chemical intervention.

Anti-Caking Molecular Stabilization

DNJ is inherently highly hygroscopic (absorbs moisture rapidly), leading to severe caking in commercial formulas. We deploy a proprietary vacuum freeze-drying and structural stabilization process. This guarantees exceptional flowability and prevents agglomeration for up to 24 months under standard storage conditions.

Glycemic Control Nutraceuticals

The premier botanical API for formulating targeted blood-sugar management capsules, often synergized with Chromium Picolinate or Bitter Melon extract.

Low-GI Functional Foods

Incorporated heavily into the baking industry (added at ~5% concentration) to manufacture low-Glycemic Index (GI) noodles, biscuits, and diabetic-friendly staple foods.

Weight Management Supplements

Utilized as a stimulant-free carbohydrate blocker in chewable diet tablets, meal-replacement powders, and metabolic fitness blends.

Premium Cosmeceuticals

Leveraged for its anti-glycation properties; added to high-end skin-brightening serums and anti-aging face masks (often combined with Niacinamide) to prevent collagen degradation.
