Natural Chinese Traditional Herb Rhizoma Picrorhizae Extract Powder

Rhizoma Picrorhizae refers to the dried rhizome of Picrorhiza kurroa, a perennial herb native to the Himalayan regions (found in India, Nepal, Pakistan, and China). It is a small, hairy plant that grows at high altitudes.

It holds a paramount position in various traditional medicine systems:

Ayurveda (India): Known as Kutki or Katuka, it is one of the most important herbs in Ayurvedic medicine, revered for its liver-protective and bitter tonic properties.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM): Known as (Hú Huáng Lián), which translates to "Foreign Yellow Coptis." It is used to clear "deficient heat" and damp heat, especially in the liver and gallbladder.

The extract is a concentrated form of the bioactive compounds obtained from this rhizome.

Rhizoma Picrorhizae Extract (Kutki/Hu Huang Lian) is a powerful, evidence-based herbal medicine with a primary focus on liver protection, detoxification, and reducing inflammation. Its potent effects are driven by unique compounds like picrosides and apocynin.
