Natural Food Grade Okra Extract Powder (10:1) Okra Powder Price

Okra extract is not a single substance but a concentrate of the bioactive compounds found in the vegetable. It's typically made by drying and powdering okra pods, then using solvents (like water or ethanol) to isolate specific components.

Major bioactive compounds include:

Soluble Dietary Fiber (especially polysaccharides and pectin): The most researched component, responsible for the characteristic "slimy" mucilage. This fiber is key to many of its health effects.

Polyphenols and Flavonoids: Such as quercetin derivatives and catechins, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Vitamins & Minerals: Rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin K, magnesium, and folate.

Protein and Peptides: With some studies showing beneficial enzyme-inhibiting activities.
