Product Overview

Dong Quai Extract Powder is a botanical ingredient derived from the root of Angelica sinensis, a plant traditionally used in Chinese herbal medicine. The plant belongs to the Apiaceae family, which also includes celery, parsley, and carrots.

The root contains naturally occurring constituents, including phthalides, ferulic acid and polysaccharides. Extract powders are produced by processing plant material to obtain an extract that is subsequently dried into powder form. The final composition depends on the extraction method, extraction ratio, and any carrier ingredients used.

Dong Quai Extract Powder is intended for suitable botanical formulations and herbal product development. Its specifications, concentration, and intended applications should be confirmed using the supplier’s product documentation.

Nutritional Value

Dong Quai Extract Powder is primarily valued as a concentrated botanical ingredient rather than a conventional food powder.

Its nutritional composition depends on the extraction process and the final formulation. Standard nutritional values should not be assumed from the whole root, as extraction can change the relative concentrations of its constituents.

Refer to the supplier’s specification sheet or certificate of analysis (COA) for product-specific information.

Composition

The root of Angelica sinensis contains several naturally occurring phytochemical groups, including:

• Phthalides: Compounds such as ligustilide and related constituents associated with the plant’s characteristic chemical profile.
• Phenolic compounds: Including ferulic acid, which has been investigated in botanical research.
• Polysaccharides: Complex carbohydrates naturally present in the root.
• Other plant constituents: Additional compounds may be present depending on the raw material and extraction method.

Traditional Uses and Botanical Properties

Dong Quai has a long history of use in traditional Chinese herbal practices, particularly in preparations associated with women’s health and menstrual wellness.

Modern research has investigated its chemical constituents and potential biological activities. However, evidence supporting many traditional applications remains limited, and traditional use does not establish that Dong Quai Extract Powder can treat hormonal disorders, menstrual conditions, or other medical problems.

The properties of a concentrated extract may also differ from those of the whole root or a traditional herbal preparation.

Uses

Dong Quai Extract Powder may be suitable for:

• Botanical and herbal formulation development.
• Traditional Chinese herbal preparations, where appropriate.
• Ingredient sourcing for qualified manufacturers.
• Research and development involving botanical extracts.
• Other applications consistent with the supplier’s specifications and applicable regulations.

Use in products intended for human consumption should be guided by appropriate professional advice and applicable safety requirements.
