Fenugreek Extract – Herbal Extraction Plant
Primary Uses: Blood sugar control, lactation support, digestion, hair health, weight management
Extraction Process
- Raw Material Sourcing: High-quality fenugreek seeds sourced from organic/compliant farms.
- Cleaning & Drying: Seeds are cleaned and dried under controlled conditions to maintain actives.
- Grinding : Coarse grinding increases exposure surface for efficient extraction.
- Solvent Extraction : Extraction using ethanol:water blend (hydroalcoholic) to isolate both polar and non-polar actives.
- Filtration & Concentration: Filtrate is vacuum-concentrated at low temperatures to preserve actives.
- Drying: Extract is further refined and standardized using HPLC to ensure ≥40% 4-Hydroxyisoleucine (4-HIL) content.
- Standardization : Spray drying or vacuum drying to yield a fine, free-flowing powder.
Active Marker – 4-Hydroxyisoleucine (4-HIL)
- A unique amino acid derivative found in fenugreek seeds.
