Lotus Leaf Extract

Lotus Leaf Extract – Premium Botanical Ingredient for Weight Management Solutions

Xi'an Linnas Biotech Co., Ltd. specializes in manufacturing premium Lotus Leaf Extract produced using sophisticated solvent extraction and spray-drying techniques from Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn. Nuciferine levels in our standardized extract range from 2% to 98%, as confirmed by HPLC, and total flavonoids are at least 5%. The product maintains heavy metal levels well below industry criteria (Lead <2ppm, Arsenic <1ppm) and exhibits remarkable thermal stability up to 120°C. Our extract provides both water-soluble and ethanol-soluble grades with reliable batch-to-batch stability, and it is available in extraction ratios ranging from 10:1 to 50:1. We ensure purity, safety, and regulatory compliance for international nutraceutical and functional food applications, supported by ISO 9001, HACCP, Halal, and Kosher certifications.

What Is Lotus Leaf Extract?

The dried leaves of Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn are used to make our extract, a concentrated botanical substance. In formulations for metabolic health and weight control, this natural substance acts as a regulator of lipid metabolism.

The extract mostly consists of many flavonoid chemicals and bioactive alkaloids, particularly Nuciferine. Together, these elements reduce intestinal absorption of dietary fats and carbohydrates by inhibiting the pancreatic lipase and amylase enzymes.

This botanical component offers evidence-based metabolic support without overstimulating the central nervous system, making it a clean-label substitute for pharmaceutical weight-loss stimulants. It connects conventional herbal knowledge with contemporary nutraceutical needs.

Product Specifications

Key Manufacturing Advantages

Superior Purity and Consistent Potency

Nuciferine and flavonoids are among the essential bioactive substances that our extraction method precisely preserves. Your formulations provide consistent lipid metabolism modulation and antioxidant effects throughout each production batch when the nucleiferine content is stabilized at ≥2.0%.

Better Consistency from Batch to Batch

From the procurement of raw materials to the storage of the finished product, we employ full-process quality control. Throughout the extraction process, temperature and humidity are tracked. To ensure that there is little difference between production runs, every batch is thoroughly tested for purity, particle size, and bioactivity.

Outstanding Versatility in Applications

The powder has excellent flowability, a consistent distribution of particle sizes, and acceptable solubility in a variety of delivery methods. It can be easily added to functional food matrices, beverages, pills, and capsules. Additionally, we provide specifications that are adapted to your production needs, such as varying percentages of nuciferine and particle sizes.

Technical Benefits for Formulators

Important formulation issues in the field of metabolic health are addressed by Lotus Leaf Extract. By inhibiting both pancreatic lipase and α-amylase activity, its dual-action mechanism offers comprehensive support for the regulation of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism.

In humid storage settings, the low hygroscopicity feature increases capsule stability and prolongs shelf life. Both ethanol-soluble and water-soluble grades provide a variety of delivery methods, including softgels and drinks.

Integration into thermal processing applications is made possible by heat stability up to 120°C, which prevents the degradation of active chemicals. You can create novel functional food products while preserving component efficacy thanks to this flexibility.

In food applications, the natural herbal scent lessens the need for additional flavoring ingredients. Consumer preferences for short ingredient lists are in line with this clean-label benefit.

Quality Assurance and Compliance

Our extensive certification portfolio is beneficial to your supply chain. Our products meet HACCP, Halal, and Kosher requirements, and our manufacturing plant uses ISO 9001 quality management systems.

Each production batch satisfies the botanical purity standards set forth by the USP, EP, and CP pharmacopeia. Strict testing procedures guaranty that microbiological contamination, pesticide residues, and heavy metals stay well below legal limits in global markets.

We strictly comply to the National Food Safety Standards and the safety regulations for cosmetic raw materials. Because our goods do not include any artificial chemical additions, your end-product safety profiles will have a strong base.
