Premium Licorice Extract: Natural Glycyrrhizin & Flavonoids for Food, Cosmetics & Supplements<\/h3>\n

Introduction<\/p>\n

Licorice extract, derived from the roots of Glycyrrhiza uralensis<\/strong> (Chinese licorice) and Glycyrrhiza glabra<\/strong> (European licorice), is one of the most versatile and scientifically backed plant-based ingredients in the global health, food, and cosmetics industries. For centuries, it has been a cornerstone of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and modern wellness formulations, valued for its natural sweetness, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and skin-brightening properties<\/strong>. As a leading supplier of high-quality plant extracts, we specialize in standardized licorice extract with guaranteed purity (5%\u201398% glycyrrhizic acid)<\/strong>, consistent batch-to-batch quality, and full regulatory compliance for global markets. Our licorice extract is widely used in dietary supplements, functional foods, natural cosmetics, and pharmaceutical formulations<\/strong>, meeting the growing demand for clean-label, organic, and science-backed ingredients.<\/div>\n

What Is Licorice Extract? Key Active Ingredients<\/h3>\n
Licorice extract is a concentrated powder, liquid, or block obtained through supercritical CO\u2082 extraction, hot water extraction, and spray drying<\/strong> of licorice roots. It contains over 30 bioactive compounds, with three primary components driving its efficacy:<\/div>\n
    \n
  • Glycyrrhizic Acid (Glycyrrhizin)<\/strong>: The flagship active compound, available in 20%, 40%, 90%, 98% (HPLC)<\/strong> purity. It is 30\u201350 times sweeter than sucrose<\/strong>, acting as a zero-calorie natural sweetener while delivering anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and hepatoprotective benefits.<\/li>\n
  • Licorice Flavonoids (Glabridin, Liquiritin)<\/strong>: 5%\u201320% purity<\/strong>, responsible for skin brightening, antioxidant, and anti-allergic effects<\/strong>. Glabridin inhibits tyrosinase activity, reducing melanin production and dark spots without irritation.<\/li>\n
  • Glycyrrhetinic Acid<\/strong>: 98% high-purity<\/strong>, a premium ingredient for pharmaceuticals and luxury cosmetics<\/strong>, offering potent anti-inflammatory and skin-soothing properties.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
    Our licorice extract is 100% natural, non-GMO, and free from artificial additives, preservatives, or heavy metals (\u226410 ppm)<\/strong>. We provide customized specifications (powder, liquid, block) to meet diverse industrial needs.<\/div>\n
