Natural Food Grade Solanum Lycopersicum White Tomato Extract Powder 10:1 20:1

White Tomato Extract (derived from Solanum lycopersicum or related species) is a specialized plant extract gaining attention in skincare, nutraceuticals, and functional foods due to its unique bioactive compounds. Unlike red tomatoes, white tomatoes (such as the White Beauty or Snow White varieties) contain distinct pigments and lower lycopene levels but offer other valuable components.
