Jiaogulan (Gynostemma Pentaphyllum) | 45%+ Gypenoside – Powder, 50g

What is Gynostemma Pentaphyllum Extract?

Gynostemma pentaphyllum, also called jiaogulan, is a dioecious, herbaceous climbing vine of the family Cucurbitaceae, the same family as cucumber, melon and gourd plants. The plant has been used in Traditional Asian medicine for centuries. The leaves of Jiaogulan contain gypenosides, which are triterpene saponins. Over 189 saponins can be found in Jiaogulan and some of the gypenosides are chemically identical to ginsenosides common to Panax ginseng. Jiaogulan is an activator of AMP-activated protein kinase. The activation of the AMPK enzyme inhibits cholesterol and fat synthesis.
