Cactus extract powder is derived from the stems, leaves or fruits of Opuntia ficus-indica, a plant of the Cactaceae family, and is prepared by water extraction, ethanol extraction or supercritical CO2technology. The core active ingredients include quercetin, betalains, polyphenolic compounds and polysaccharides. It is a brown to brown powder with a slight herbal aroma and moderate water solubility. Cactus is used in traditional medicine for anti-inflammatory, hypoglycemic and wound healing, while modern research focuses on its antioxidant, metabolic regulation and skin repair functions. |
