Functional Ingredients

Cassis Extract
Sourced from New Zealand cassis fruits, this 100% pure extract is commonly used for eye care. It contains two types of rutin glycosides and four types of anthocyanins, standardizing their total amount. This ingredient has a history of effectiveness as part of functional food products. (Daily intake recommendation: 50 mg per day of Cassis anthocyanins, corresponding to 167 mg per day of the extract powder.)

Rosehip Extract
Obtained from whole fruits including seeds, this extract contains Tiliroside, a key component that promotes fat metabolism and reduces body fat. It minimally affects the taste and appearance of the final product, making it preferable for various applications. This water-soluble extract also shows effectiveness in small quantities. (Daily intake recommendation: 0.1 mg per day of Tiliroside; 100 mg per day of the extract powder.)
