Our Natural Fennel Extract is a 10:1 concentrated extract from Foeniculum vulgare(Gansu Minqin, China’s premier fennel-growing region), processed via low-temperature water extraction (36°C) + enzyme-assisted hydrolysis to preserve natural anethole (sweet aromatic compound) and fenchone. Sourced from hand-harvested fruits (peak ripeness stage), it is standardized for anethole (3%+) and dietary fiber (10%+), with zero additives and desert cultivation authenticity (1000-1500m altitude for optimal active density). The 100-mesh powder is ideal for food flavorings, digestive support products, and natural cosmetics.
Anethole Purity: 3%+ HPLC-verified anethole (key sweet-aromatic compound), 1.7x higher than average fennel extracts.
Gentle Processing: 36°C low-temp extraction + enzyme hydrolysis retains 93% of actives (vs. 61% in solvent extraction), preserving sweet aromatic profile.
Fiber-Rich Formula: 10g/100g dietary fiber supports digestive comfort, ideal for fiber-fortified foods.
Global Compliance: Non-GMO, Halal/Kosher certified, meets FDA/EFSA food additive standards and EU Novel Food regulations.
Benefit | Key Active | Mechanism/Data | Application Link |
|---|---|---|---|
Digestive Comfort | Dietary Fiber (10g/100g+) + Anethole (3%+) | Promotes gut flora balance (in vitro fermentation ↑14%, J Agric Food Chem, 2022); eases occasional bloating | |
