Bitter Apricot Extract

Overview

Bitter Apricot Extract, derived from the kernels of Prunus armeniaca L., is a potent botanical long revered in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. Unlike the sweet variety, the bitter apricot kernel is highly valued for its concentration of amygdalin (often referred to as Vitamin B17). Historically known as a powerful remedy for "harmonizing" the lungs, it is traditionally used to suppress persistent coughs and clear phlegm.

The extract is obtained from the seed hidden within the hard stone of the fruit. In modern natural wellness, it is carefully processed to harness its bioactive compounds—including essential fatty acids (oleic and linoleic acids), plant proteins, and antioxidants—while maintaining standardized levels of its key components for safety and efficacy.


Highlights
  • Standardized Amygdalin Content: Precisely controlled levels (typically 2% to 4%) to ensure therapeutic benefit while maintaining safety.
  • 100% Kernel-Derived: Extracted strictly from the inner sclerotia (kernel), ensuring a high density of bioactive nitrilosides and minerals.
  • Rich in Essential Fatty Acids: Contains a high percentage of Vitamin E and Oleic acid, supporting cellular integrity and skin health.
  • Advanced Purification: Utilizes specialized extraction methods to remove impurities and ensure a clean, high-potency powder or oil.
