Gynostemma Pentaphyllum, commonly known as Jiaogulan or "Southern Ginseng," is a premier adaptogenic herb native to Southeast Asia. Unlike many other botanical extracts, it is exceptionally rich in Gypenosides—saponins that are structurally similar to the ginsenosides found in Panax Ginseng. This unique chemical profile has positioned Gynostemma as a cornerstone ingredient in the global wellness market.
The global industrial demand for Gynostemma Pentaphyllum Extract is experiencing an unprecedented surge. As the "Clean Label" movement gains momentum, pharmaceutical and supplement companies in the USA, Europe, and Japan are seeking natural alternatives to synthetic metabolic regulators. Today, Gynostemma is not just a traditional herb but a scientifically-validated raw material used in blood sugar management, cardiovascular support, and weight management formulations.
Current trends indicate a shift toward high-purity standardized extracts. While traditional powders were common, modern factories now offer concentrated Gypenosides (ranging from 20% to 98% purity). There is also a rising interest in "Small Molecule" extraction technologies, which enhance the bioavailability of the active compounds, making the extract more effective in smaller dosages for functional beverages and skincare products.
Xi’an Le-Nutra Ingredients Inc is a biotechnology enterprise with a stellar reputation in the industry. We have been devoted to natural ingredients for over 14 years. We are dedicated to the research, production, and marketing of natural, healthy, and innovative raw materials widely used in the fields of Nutraceuticals, Foods and Beverages, Cosmetics & Personal Care Products.
In North America and Europe, Gynostemma is encapsulated as a standalone supplement or blended with Ginseng and Rhodiola. It is targeted at consumers looking for "adrenal support" and natural energy boosters without the caffeine crash.
The antioxidant properties of Gypenosides make Gynostemma Extract a premium choice for high-end skincare. It is used in anti-pollution creams and longevity serums to protect skin cells from oxidative stress and UV-induced damage.
In Asia, particularly Thailand and Korea, Gynostemma is widely used in ready-to-drink (RTD) herbal teas and wellness shots. Its ability to support metabolic health makes it a popular ingredient in sugar-free functional drinks.
