Gymnema Sylvestris

Gymnema sylvestre is a woody climbing plant of the Apocynaceae family native to India and Southeast Asia, long used in Ayurvedic tradition. Nustras supplies gymnema as dried leaf powder and leaf extract, a botanical ingredient for the herbal supplement category. The leaf contains triterpenoid saponins known as gymnemic acids, which serve as the marker compounds.

Gymnema leaf powder and extract are formulated into capsules, tablets and powder blends, herbal teas and multi-botanical premixes; the extract is chosen where a standardised botanical must fit a small dose form.

The leaf powder is green to brownish-green with a characteristic odour; extracts are light-brown to brown fine powders. Identity is confirmed by HPTLC against reference material, and the gymnemic-acid content of extracts is standardised to specification and assayed by HPLC. Heavy-metal, pesticide-residue and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.

Nustras supplies Gymnema sylvestre 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. Gymnema leaf is an accepted herbal ingredient in major markets; buyers confirm the plant part, extract ratio and permitted claim for their application.
