Alfa Chemistry Unveils Natural Ingredients Portfolio: Flavonoids, Carotenoids, Ginsenosides For Evidence-Based Nutraceuticals


(MENAFN- ForPressRelease) Alfa Chemistry, a dietary supplement ingredients provider, today announced the addition of a new natural ingredients portfolio which includes flavonoids, carotenoids, and ginsenosides. Natural ingredients are compounds derived from plants and other natural sources, often minimally processed to preserve their bioactive properties.

Flavonoids are a diverse group of polyphenolic compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. These plant bioactives include catechins, quercetin, and anthocyanins. They possess antioxidant properties by scavenging reactive oxygen species and inhibit NF-?B and MAPK signaling involved in inflammation and cellular stress responses. In preclinical research, flavonoids have shown support for cardiovascular function, glucose metabolism, and neuroprotection. This makes them particularly valuable in dietary supplements targeting metabolic and cognitive health.

Carotenoids are naturally occurring isoprenoid pigments that give plants their red, orange, and yellow color. This group includes beta-carotene, lutein, and lycopene. Beta-carotene is a provitamin A required for retinal function and immune support. Lutein and zeaxanthin accumulate in the macula and protect against oxidative damage and age-related macular degeneration. Lycopene quenches singlet oxygen and inhibits lipid peroxidation, which can be beneficial for cardiovascular health. These scientifically validated effects provide the mechanism for their dietary supplement uses.

Ginsenosides are triterpene saponins found in the roots of Panax ginseng. This adaptogenic, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory bioactive modulates HPA axis activity, improves mitochondrial function, and reduces the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. This helps support physical endurance and cognitive performance. Standardized ginsenoside extracts allow for consistent dosing and reproducible bioactivity in functional foods and nutraceuticals.

In addition to these natural bioactive compounds, Alfa Chemistry offers a wide range of natural ingredients that include alkaloids, terpenes, phenols, essential oils, fatty acids, sugars, saponins, and sterols. Each ingredient has been fully characterized for its unique biochemical properties and potential health benefits, and are used for a number of health-supporting applications including digestive health, weight management, mental well-being, and skincare.

Alfa Chemistry also provides quality control services, including chromatographic fingerprinting, marker-based standardization, and purity verification. These tools and protocols ensure that the ingredients used by manufacturers and researchers are reproducible and safe. Customized extracts and blends can also be provided upon request to meet specific formulation needs.

"A growing number of companies are turning to natural ingredients to use as a platform for development, particularly when creating nutraceuticals," said a senior member of the Alfa Chemistry executive team. "By providing well-characterized compounds such as flavonoids, carotenoids, and ginsenosides, we can enable researchers to formulate dietary supplements in a research-driven way.
