This product is a standardized botanical extract prepared from the dried ripe fruit of Crataegus pinnatifida, cultivated in Northern China. Hawthorn Fruit Extract Powder is supplied as a fine brown to yellowish-brown powder and manufactured at a typical extraction ratio of 10:1.
Hawthorn Fruit Extract Powder is standardized to defined levels of flavonoid compounds, including Vitexin, which is commonly used as an analytical marker for hawthorn-derived ingredients. Additional naturally occurring constituents such as proanthocyanidins and organic acids are retained through controlled extraction and concentration steps.
In commercial use, hawthorn fruit extract is positioned as a functional plant-derived ingredient for dietary supplements and functional foods, particularly in formulations where botanical flavonoids and fruit acids are of interest.
