About this ingredient
Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract is a botanical extract obtained from the dried bark of Phellodendron amurense, a member of the Rutaceae family. Also known as Phellodendri Cortex or Huang Bai, the bark has a long history of use in traditional Chinese herbal practices. It contains naturally occurring alkaloids and other plant compounds, including berberine, phellodendrine, palmatine, jatrorrhizine, phenolics, flavonoids, and limonoids. Modern research has investigated its antioxidant, antimicrobial, and inflammation-related biological activities, although these findings should not be interpreted as established clinical benefits.
