Dandelion Extract Powder, 5% Taraxsterols

Description

Dandelion Extract Powder : Dandelion extract, derived from the roots of the dandelion plant (Taraxaci Officinale L.), is a herbal supplement found in many countries worldwide. It contains key compounds like Taraxsterols, a type of triterpenoid, known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as diuretic effects and aiding digestion.

Taraxsterols : These are a type of triterpenoid compounds structurally similar to cholesterol, commonly found in plants such as dandelions, sunflowers, daisies, and chamomile. Taraxsterols consist of a basic triterpenoid structure formed by three connected isoprene units, with each isoprene molecule having a C5H8 structure.

Taraxsterols act as antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents by binding to and neutralizing free radicals, which are generated through oxidation reactions in the body. Free radicals can cause cellular damage and contribute to various diseases such as cancer, heart and vascular diseases, and Alzheimer’s disease. Taraxsterols can inhibit the activity of enzymes that promote inflammation, thereby providing anti-inflammatory effects.

Key Properties of Dandelion Extract Powder 

• Diuretic Effect : Taraxasterol in dandelion extract acts as a diuretic. Being poorly absorbed by the body, it gets excreted through urine, thereby increasing urine production. This can help in urinary excretion and reducing water retention.
• Aids Digestion : Dandelion extract contains inulin, a type of dietary fiber that is a prebiotic. Inulin is not digested in the stomach but is broken down by bacteria in the large intestine. It stimulates the growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria, aiding digestion and preventing constipation.
• Weight Loss Support : Dandelion extract contains flavonoids and other compounds that boost energy metabolism and reduce the absorption of fats in the body. These components help accelerate fat burning and reduce fat absorption, aiding in weight loss. The weight loss mechanisms of dandelion extract include:
  • Increasing Energy Metabolism : Flavonoids and other compounds in dandelion extract can stimulate metabolic processes, leading to increased energy expenditure, which may contribute to weight loss.
  • Reducing Fat Absorption : Compounds in dandelion extract can inhibit the absorption of fats into the body, potentially aiding in weight reduction.
• Antioxidant Properties : Dandelion extract contains antioxidants that protect various cells in the body from damage by free radicals. Free radicals, produced during cellular metabolism, can damage cells, including skin cells. Antioxidants in dandelion extract can help slow down cellular aging and maintain youthful skin.
• Liver Health : The liver is a vital organ with multiple functions, including digestion, toxin removal, and production of various substances. Taraxasterol in dandelion extract stimulates bile production, essential for digesting fats and eliminating toxins, thereby contributing to liver health and preventing inflammatory liver diseases.
