What is Prunella Vulgaris Extract?

Prunella vulgaris, commonly known as "Self-Heal," "Heal-All," or "Xia Ku Cao" in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), is a perennial plant found in grasslands worldwide. The name "Self-Heal" hints at its long-standing use in folk medicine for treating a wide variety of ailments.

Prunella Vulgaris Extract is a concentrated form of the plant's aerial parts (the parts above ground, primarily the flower spikes), typically standardized for its key active compounds. The extraction process, often using water or alcohol, is designed to maximize the potency and bioavailability of these compounds.
