Part of our Herbal Extracts range, manufactured and exported by Arizone International LLP.
Salacia Reticulata Extract is made from the roots and stems of a woody climbing plant native to India and Sri Lanka. Known as Saptarangi in Ayurveda and Kothala Himbutu in Sri Lanka, it has a long history of use for blood sugar support, and it is also used in Japan in functional foods.
Arizone International supplies Salacia Reticulata Extract for nutraceutical, herbal, cosmetic and food manufacturers, private label brands, wholesalers and bulk buyers. Standardisation, extract ratio, carrier, packaging and quantity can all be set to your specification.
Salacia reticulata is a large climbing shrub that grows in the forests of southern India and Sri Lanka. Traditionally, water left overnight in cups carved from its wood was drunk for wellness.
The roots and stems contain mangiferin, salacinol and kotalanol. These compounds are studied for their effect on enzymes that break down carbohydrates in the gut. Extracts are commonly standardised to mangiferin.
To make the extract, the dried plant material is cleaned, milled and extracted with water, hydro-alcohol or another suitable solvent. The liquid extract is filtered, concentrated and usually spray-dried into a fine, free-flowing powder. It can then be standardised to a marker compound or supplied as a ratio extract, such as 10:1, and any carrier used, such as maltodextrin, is stated on the specification.
Formulation, dosage, safety assessment, labelling and permitted claims of the finished product must comply with the regulations of the intended market. Salacia may lower blood sugar and can cause gas or bloating, so people taking diabetes medicines, and pregnant or breastfeeding women, should consult a healthcare professional.
Salacia is often wild-harvested, so ask about sustainable sourcing and legal collection documents.
Other Salacia species, such as Salacia oblonga and Salacia chinensis, are also sold; check the species on the certificate of analysis.
Salacia products are usually taken just before meals that contain carbohydrates, so labels often give directions linked to mealtimes. The extract is light brown and mildly bitter, which suits capsules, tablets and powdered drink mixes. Keep it sealed and away from moisture.
