Safed Musli Powder is made from the dried, peeled tuberous roots of Chlorophytum borivilianum, a small herb that grows in the forests of India during the monsoon. Its white roots are so valued in Ayurveda and Unani medicine, especially in tonics for vitality and strength, that the plant is sometimes called "white gold".
Arizone International supplies Safed Musli Powder and dried roots for Ayurvedic and Unani manufacturers, men's and women's wellness brands, nutraceutical companies, wholesalers and exporters.
About Safed Musli
Chlorophytum borivilianum is a lily-like herb with long, narrow leaves and small white star-shaped flowers. It grows naturally in the deciduous forests of central and western India, and it appears above ground only in the rainy season. Below ground, it forms a cluster of thick, finger-like, fleshy tuberous roots. After harvesting, the roots are washed, peeled and dried until they turn creamy white and hard, then ground into powder.
Because wild populations were heavily collected, safed musli is now widely cultivated, especially in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat and Maharashtra, making it an important medicinal crop for farmers.
