Our Natural Galangal Extract is a 10:1 concentrated extract from Alpinia officinarum(Yunnan Wenshan orchards, China’s premier galangal-growing region), processed via low-temperature water extraction (40°C) to preserve natural gingerols and volatile oil. Sourced from hand-harvested rhizomes (peak spicy flavor stage), it is standardized for gingerols (2%+) and flavonoids (3%+), with zero additives and subtropical cultivation authenticity (800-1200m for optimal active density). The 80-mesh powder is ideal for culinary, functional food, and natural cosmetic applications.
- Gingerol Purity: 2%+ HPLC-verified gingerols (key flavor/antioxidant compound), 1.5x higher than average galangal extracts.
- Gentle Processing: 40°C low-temp extraction + spray drying retains 90% of actives (vs. 65% in heat extraction), preserving mild spicy aroma.
- Multifunctional Profile: Flavonoids (3%+) + polysaccharides (4%+) support antioxidant and digestive comfort.
- Global Compliance: Halal/Kosher certified, Non-GMO, meets FDA/EFSA food additive standards and EU Novel Food regulations.
