White Kidney Bean Extract

Product Overview

Our White Kidney Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) Extract is a premium, high-purity ingredient meticulously developed for the dietary supplement and functional food industries. Sourced from select non-GMO white kidney beans, this extract is standardized for its content of Phaseolin, the key active compound. Its primary function is as an alpha-amylase inhibitor, designed to interfere with the digestion of complex carbohydrates. This makes it a cornerstone ingredient for advanced formulations supporting weight management and metabolic wellness.

Produced through a clean, water-only extraction process, our extract delivers exceptional quality without the use of harsh solvents, ensuring it meets the strictest clean-label standards for your products.

Unique Advantages:

• Dual-Standardized Potency: Guaranteed for both Phaseolin content (1% or 2% by validated HPLC) and high alpha-amylase inhibitory activity for reliable, consistent performance.
• Clean-Label Processing: Utilizes a water-only extraction method, resulting in a pure ingredient free from residual solvents.
• Superior Formulatability: Excellent particle size and flowability characteristics ensure superior performance in automated encapsulation and direct compression tableting processes.
• Traceable & Reliable Supply: Available directly from the manufacturer, we provide a fully traceable and stable supply chain, ensuring consistent quality and pricing.
