Ashitaba is the common name for Angelica keiskei (Miq.) Koidz., a plant native to the Izu islands on the Pacific coast of Japan. Ashitaba has been consumed as a vegetable and medicine for many hundreds of years by the local islanders. The fresh leaves and dried plant material are used in foods. The plant is nutritious as it is high in vitamin and mineral content. In traditional medicine, Ashitaba is used as a tonic, to improve digestion, as well as to prevent and cure infectious diseases.
When the stems or roots of the plant are broken, a sticky yellow sap gushes out. This sap has been used to treat various skin conditions, including boils, cysts, pustules, and athletes foot. The sap contains compounds called chalcones, which belong to a larger class of chemical compounds known as flavonoids. About 20 different chalcones have been identified in the plant, with the most abundant being 4-hydroxyderricin and xanthoangelol. The edible portion of the leaf (raw leaves) contains 0.2 to 0.3% chalcones. JBSL Ashitaba Chalcone Powder is a concentrated preparation containing a minimum of 8.0% total chalcones.
Historically, Ashitaba has been a cornerstone in traditional medicine, revered for its healing properties and nutrient richness. Its usage dates back centuries, with ancient texts documenting its role in promoting longevity and vitality. Over the years, Ashitaba has cemented its place as a reliable source of health-enhancing compounds, with modern science beginning to uncover the depth of its potential benefits.
Research indicates that chalcones can play a significant role in managing body weight and reducing visceral fat. Its potential in aiding weight loss and promoting a healthy body composition makes it a sought-after ingredient in dietary supplements.
Studies have shown that chalcones can positively influence lipid levels, potentially reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Its role in managing cholesterol levels is being explored further to establish it as a reliable agent in heart health.
Chalcones have demonstrated potential in regulating blood pressure levels, offering a natural alternative to manage hypertension and promote overall cardiovascular health.
Research suggests that chalcones can aid in controlling blood glucose levels, making it a promising ingredient in the management of diabetes and insulin sensitivity.
Chalcones have been found to influence adiponectin levels positively, a hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating glucose levels and fatty acid breakdown.
Studies indicate that chalcones can modulate leptin levels, a hormone that controls hunger and satiety, potentially aiding in weight management and obesity control.
In the dynamic landscape of health and wellness, Ashitaba Chalcones Powder stands as a beacon of innovation and quality. As product development managers and technologists, this is your opportunity to lead the market with a product that blends tradition, science, and efficacy seamlessly.
Chalcones are flavonoid polyphenols found exclusively in the yellow sap of Ashitaba (Angelica keiskei). No other plant contains these specific bioactive compounds — xanthoangelol and 4-hydroxyderricin — in comparable concentrations. Research shows chalcones reduce visceral fat, stimulate adiponectin secretion, and improve insulin sensitivity, making Ashitaba Chalcones Powder a differentiated ingredient for metabolic health formulations.
For concentrated chalcone benefits, 500–1,000 mg of Ashitaba Chalcones Powder per day is a typical dosage range in capsule formulations. The powder provides a concentrated source of chalcones compared to whole-leaf Ashitaba powder, allowing effective dosing in standard capsule formats.
Regular Ashitaba powder is made from the whole leaf, providing a broad nutritional profile including vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Ashitaba Chalcones Powder is a concentrated extract specifically standardized for chalcone content — the unique bioactive compounds responsible for Ashitaba's metabolic health benefits. This allows precise dosing of the active compounds in supplement formulations.
Ashitaba Chalcones Powder integrates well into capsules, tablets, and functional food products. Its concentrated form is particularly suited for capsule formulations where space is limited. The powder can be combined with complementary metabolic health ingredients such as green tea catechins, chromium, or berberine for multi-action formulations.
