Poria cocos Extract Powder

Product Description

What is Poria Cocos Extract?

Poria cocos extract, also known as Hoelen or Fu Ling, is an extract derived from a wood-decaying fungus or mushroom (Poria cocos) traditionally used in various Asian countries for medicinal purposes and increasingly in cosmetics. This extract, rich in polysaccharides, triterpenoids like pachymic acid, steroids, amino acids, choline, and histidine, is utilized for its potential benefits, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory effects, as well as for skin-conditioning properties.

Key Components:

The main active components are polysaccharides, which are abundant in Poria cocos and contribute to many of its biological activities. Other notable compounds include triterpenoids like pachymic acid and various other compounds such as pinylic acid, tumulosic acid, cortoic acid, and poricoic acid.

Triterpenoids: These are compounds known for their potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-boosting properties. They play a significant role in protecting cells from oxidative stress and reducing inflammation.
Polysaccharides: These are essential bioactive compounds that help modulate the immune system, enhancing the body’s natural defense mechanisms. They are also believed to support healthy blood sugar levels and overall metabolic function.
Pachymic Acid: A specific triterpenoid found in Poria cocos, pachymic acid has been studied for its potential anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory effects, highlighting its importance in both traditional and modern medicinal uses.

Benefits of Poria Cocos Extract

Poria cocos extract, derived from the fungus Poria cocos (also known as Fu Ling or poria mushroom), is utilized in traditional medicine and modern applications for its diverse pharmacological activities, including effects on skin health, neurological function, kidney support, and anti-inflammatory properties. Research indicates its potential in improving skin hydration, reducing inflammation, supporting brain function, and aiding in metabolic health, particularly related to fatty liver disease.

• Skin Health

Poria cocos extract is known for its ability to control sebum secretion, protect the skin, and condition it. It acts as an antioxidant, safeguarding against free radical damage, and its astringent properties help purify the skin by removing dead skin cells and impurities. The polysaccharides in the extract provide moisturizing benefits by aiding in water retention. It also promotes healthy skin barrier function and soothes sensitized skin.

• Neurological Effects

Studies suggest that Poria cocos extract may improve spatial memory and sleep quality by acting on the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) system and potentially promoting NSPC differentiation.

• Kidney Support

Historically used for its diuretic properties, modern research suggests Poria cocos polysaccharides may help protect kidney function by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress and improving fluid regulation.

• Anti-inflammatory and Antioxidant Properties

Poria cocos extract demonstrates significant anti-inflammatory effects by down-regulating pro-inflammatory mediators and cytokines. It also possesses antioxidant properties which contribute to its overall protective effects.

• Metabolic Health

Research indicates that Poria cocos extract can impact lipid metabolism, showing potential in managing conditions like metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease.

• Gastrointestinal Support

Extracts have been shown to improve functional dyspepsia by regulating brain-gut peptides, immunity, and repairing gastrointestinal mucosa.

Why Choose Our Poria Cocos Extract Powder

• Low-temperature extraction technology

In traditional high-temperature extraction methods, Poria cocos may be damaged and oxidized by high temperatures, resulting in the loss or degradation of heat-sensitive components. To avoid this loss, we use low-temperature extraction technology.

• Bioavailability

The Botanical Cube uses special micro-grinding and ultra-fine granulation technology to control the particle size of Poria cocos powder to the nanometer level. The application of this technology can increase the contact area between Poria cocos and the human body, thus promoting its absorption and utilization efficiency.

• Purity and Stability

We attach great importance to the quality and safety of Poria Cocos products, so we conduct strict quality testing and analysis during the extraction process. We use analytical techniques such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to detect the active ingredients of Poria products. Secondly, we conduct residual testing for heavy metals and harmful substances. In addition to this, we also perform microbiological testing. Through these strict quality inspections and analyses, we are able to ensure the quality and safety of every batch of Poria Powder.
