What is ivy leaf extract?
Ivy leaf extract is a natural active ingredient extracted from the leaves of Hedera helix L., a plant of the Araliaceae family. It primarily contains saponins (such as hederacoside C), flavonoids, and α-hederin. As a traditional European herbal remedy, its medicinal use dates back thousands of years. Modern production is standardized to produce a fine brown-green powder, widely used in medicine, health supplements, and cosmetics.

What is the benefit of ivy leaf extract?
1.Respiratory System Protection
Cough and Expectorant: Saponins promote mucus discharge, relieve bronchospasm, and improve symptoms of asthma and chronic bronchitis.
Anti-inflammatory and Antibacterial: Inhibits pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus and reduces airway inflammation.
2.Skin Health
Wound Healing: Accelerates cell regeneration and is suitable for burns, eczema, and skin inflammation.
Anti-Aging: Reduces fine lines and enhances skin hydration.
3.Other Benefits
Dispelling Wind and Dampness: Relieves rheumatic joint pain.
Antioxidant: Scavenges free radicals and slows cell aging.

How to make ivy leaf extract?
Steam treatment: Ivy leaves are crushed and then heated with steam to inhibit component conversion.
Two-stage extraction: α-hederin and hederacoside C are enriched separately and then mixed in appropriate proportions.
Drying and purification: Active ingredient content is determined by HPLC (available in 3%-15% strengths).
