Our Natural Couch Grass Extract Powder is a 10:1 concentrated extract from Elymus repens(Gansu Zhangye grasslands, China’s premier forage-growing region), processed via low-temperature water extraction (35°C) to preserve natural polysaccharides and flavonoids. Sourced from hand-harvested mature aerial parts (peak active compound stage), it is standardized for polysaccharides (8%+) and dietary fiber (10g/100g+), with zero additives and high-altitude grassland cultivation authenticity (1500-2000m for optimal nutrient density). The powder is 80-mesh fine-ground and ideal for clean-label food, beverage, and dietary supplement applications.
