DESCRIPTION
Bitter melon extract
Bitter Gourd Extract, Bitter Melon Extract
Aliases: cold melon, mallow lychee, toad grapes, toad.
Latin name: Memordica charantia L.
Biological classification: eukaryotic domain (Eukarya), plant kingdom (Plantae), phylum (Magnoliophyta), Dicotyledons (Magnoliopsida), Cucurbittales, Cucurbitaceae, Momordica, bitter melon (M. charantia)
Scientific name: Momordica charantiap
Active ingredients: Bitter melon is triterpenoids (Charantin), bitter melon polypeptide Balsampear polypeptide
The main chemical components in bitter melon fruit are glycosides, proteins, peptides and amino acids such as bitter melon glycosides. The glycosides are mainly composed of steroidal saponins and triterpene saponins, of which Charantin is the main component, which is a mixture of β-sitosterol-β-D-glucoside (β-Sitosterol-β-D-glucoside) and 5,25-stigmastadienol-3-glucoside (5,25-stigmastadien-3β-ol-β-D-glucoside). Several studies have shown that bitter melon glycosides and bitter melon polypeptides are one of the effective substances with hypoglycemic effects.
