2. Active Ingredients

Nettle Flavonoids and Anthocyanins

The main active ingredients of nettle extract are natural nettle flavonoids and anthocyanin compounds. These active substances are renowned for powerful antioxidant, skin brightening and evening, anti-inflammatory redness-reducing and skin stabilizing properties, serving as the core functional components of nettle.

Nettle flavonoids and anthocyanins are key natural active ingredients intensively studied in the industry. Studies have shown that these components can effectively neutralize free radicals in the human body and on the skin surface. Free radicals are the primary cause of skin oxidative dullness, fine lines, rough texture, body aging and sub-health conditions, which can effectively improve various oxidative skin damages.

Natural Polyphenols, Plant Sterols and Organic Acids

Nettle extract also contains abundant natural polyphenols, plant sterols and organic acids, featuring a fresh and pure natural herbal fragrance. These ingredients not only endow the product with a clean and mild plant texture, but also deliver excellent effects on oil metabolism regulation, mild bacteriostasis, soothing repair and metabolic conditioning. They gently nourish the skin and physical condition, bringing multiple maintenance benefits.

3. Appearance and Properties

Color

Conventional-grade nettle extract ranges from light yellowish green to brownish yellow; high-purity grade presents light tender yellowish green, and high-precision grade is pale yellowish white, free of impurities and agglomerates.

Form

The product is available in fine powder and concentrated liquid extract. The delicate powder is easy to formulate and suitable for producing dietary supplements, solid functional foods and cosmetic powder raw materials. The liquid extract features higher concentration and fully retained bioactivity, perfectly matching deep processing scenarios requiring high concentration and high permeability.

Solubility

Conventional nettle extract powder has moderate water solubility and performs better in dispersion and dissolution in alcohol-based and oil-based systems. Supported by advanced extraction and modification technology, water-soluble nettle extract has achieved stable mass production. It is compatible with various water-based production systems to fully meet diverse application needs across different industries.

4. Health Benefits

Antioxidant Protection

As mentioned above, flavonoids, anthocyanins and polyphenols in nettle extract possess strong antioxidant capacity. They effectively eliminate free radicals in the body and on the skin, protect cells from oxidative damage, slow down skin and body aging, and reduce the risks of dull and rough skin, oxidative yellowing, fine lines and sagging as well as physical sub-health problems.

Anti-inflammatory and Soothing Properties

Multiple studies have verified that nettle extract has remarkable anti-inflammatory and soothing effects. It relieves superficial skin inflammation, redness and heat, sensitivity and excessive oil secretion, and assists in regulating mild internal inflammation of the body. It works well for skin calming and stabilization, improving oily and rough skin texture and conditioning metabolic inflammation of the body.

Body Metabolism and Physical & Mental Conditioning

The natural active ingredients of nettle exert positive regulatory effects on human metabolism and physical and mental status. They help balance body circulation, relieve physical fatigue and irritability, improve listlessness, stabilize body functions, and ameliorate sub-health problems caused by overwork and metabolic disorders.

Metabolic Maintenance and Health Care

Organic acids, plant sterols and polyphenols in nettle extract gently regulate human metabolism, balance body circulation and unblock metabolic functions. They relieve physical fatigue, bloating and dull complexion caused by slow metabolism and poor circulation, realizing mild comprehensive body conditioning and health maintenance.

Extraction Technology

Our optimized and upgraded extraction process maximizes the extraction of core active ingredients including nettle flavonoids, anthocyanins, polyphenols and plant sterols, while completely retaining their molecular structure and biological activity to prevent active loss. Advanced technologies such as supercritical fluid extraction, low-temperature solvent extraction and spray drying are flexibly adopted according to different product grade requirements to guarantee product purity and quality.

Testing and Analysis

Each batch of nettle extract undergoes strict tests on active ingredient content, purity and overall quality. High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) is used to accurately detect the content of core components to meet quality standards. Meanwhile, rigorous safety tests on microorganisms, heavy metals and impurities are carried out to eliminate harmful contaminants and ensure full compliance with safety regulations.

7. Packaging and Storage

Packaging
