Organic Ashitaba Powder is an Organic JAS certified powder of Angelica keiskei for supplement, aojiru and green-drink formulations. Composition: 100% organic ashitaba powder, with no carriers or additives. It is sterilized, milled and packed in Japan.
Ashitaba possesses remarkable vitality, to the extent that it is often said, "if you pluck ashitaba leaves today, new ones will emerge by tomorrow." This plant, a member of the Apiaceae family, is a large perennial herb native to the Pacific coast of Japan. What sets it apart from other flora is its distinctive yellow sap. In Japan, ashitaba is one of the green vegetables used to make aojiru (green juice) products, alongside kale, mulberry leaf and barley grass.
A single-ingredient powder for whole-food and clean-label formulations: supplement brands (capsules, tablets, powders), aojiru and green-drink makers, distributors and importers. Ashitaba Chalcones Powder is a separate concentrate intended for formulations that call for a defined chalcone fraction; the two differ in format and purpose.

Ashitaba contains chalcones and other flavonoids, coumarins, carotene, vitamins and dietary fibre. The sections below describe what each group is and where it occurs in Angelica keiskei.
The two main chalcones of Angelica keiskei are 4-hydroxyderricin and xanthoangelol. When an ashitaba stem is cut, it releases a sticky yellow sap; this sap is where the plant's chalcones are found. For this powder, identity is set in the specification as xanthoangelol and 4-hydroxyderricin detected by HPLC, and each lot CoA reports the chalcone identity test.
The chalcone 4,4'-dimethoxychalcone (DMC) has been identified in Angelica keiskei (Nature Communications, 2019). For more on the plant and its chalcones, see our ashitaba background for formulators.
Besides chalcones, constituents identified in Angelica keiskei include other flavonoids, coumarins, phenolics, acetylenes and terpenes.
Typical values per 100 g of the powder (not a lot analysis): carotene 19,000 mcg; vitamin B2 1.0 mg; vitamin C 66 mg. The same typical data list protein 14 g, potassium 3,240 mg and calcium 1,590 mg per 100 g.
Dietary fibre: 42 g per 100 g of the powder, a typical value rather than a lot analysis.

Research on Angelica keiskei focuses mainly on its chalcones, xanthoangelol and 4-hydroxyderricin, and on other flavonoids and coumarins (review: Kil et al., Archives of Pharmacal Research, 2017). These studies were not conducted on this product.

A pesticide residue report, a heavy-metal report, a non-GMO and allergen statement and the Organic JAS certificate are also available. The multi-residue pesticide screen of a 2026 lot covered 377 analytes with none detected (LOQ 0.01 mg/kg; GC-MS/MS and LC-MS/MS; ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory), and the annual heavy-metal verification (2026, ICP-MS) found arsenic, cadmium and mercury not detected; this is a verification lot, not a per-shipment result.
