Black Radish

Black radish is the root of Raphanus sativus var. niger, a cultivated radish of the mustard family with a black, rough skin and firm white flesh, grown as a winter root vegetable in Europe and Asia. Nustras supplies it as a dried root powder and as a concentrated extract powder. The root contains glucosinolates and their breakdown products, which give it a pungent flavour, together with dietary fibre and minerals.

Black radish is formulated into botanical supplements in capsule, tablet and liquid form, into digestive-category herbal blends alongside artichoke and dandelion, and into functional foods, juices and savoury powders.

Supplied as an off-white to beige powder with a characteristic pungent radish odour and taste. Botanical identity is confirmed by macroscopic examination of the raw material and thin-layer chromatography; particle size, moisture and ash are standardised to specification. Heavy-metal, pesticide and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.

Nustras supplies black radish in bulk commercial quantities, in food-grade bags and fibre drums, to manufacturers and formulators internationally, with a certificate of analysis, specification sheet and country-of-origin documentation on every lot. Black radish root is an accepted food and supplement ingredient in major markets; buyers confirm the preparation and permitted claim for their application.
