Glabridin Powder CAS 59870-68-7

Glabridin powder is a natural whitening agent isolated from glycyrrhiza flavonoids. Glycyrrhiza flavonoids are extracted from the roots and stems of specific varieties of glycyrrhiza plants (such as Uralice glycyrrhiza, swollen fruit glycyrrhiza, and smooth fruit glycyrrhiza, etc.). It is completely natural, pollution-free, and has no side effects on the human body. Glabridin can relieve phlegm, moisturize the skin, reduce inflammation, resist filterable pathogens, counteract hepatic toxins and has antibacterial properties. Due to these therapeutic effects of licorice, it has been widely studied in both medicine and food. Licorice can be used in cosmetics. It has whitening, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant effects, and is a highly valuable cosmetic raw material. Glabridin, due to its highly effective ability to inhibit reactive oxygen species and melanin, is hailed as the "gold of whitening" by people. This is not only a compliment for its whitening effects but also because the price per gram of Glabridin is comparable to that of gold, and only a few brands dare to use it as a whitening ingredient.

Glabridin powder is one of the main flavonoid components in Glycyrrhiza uralensis. It shows a strong anti-free radical oxidation effect in the cytochrome P450/NADPH oxidation system, and can significantly inhibit the free radicals produced during the metabolic process in the body, so as to prevent the oxidative damage of oxidization-sensitive biological macromolecules (low-density lipoprotein LDL,DNA) and cell walls by free radicals. Thus, certain pathological changes related to free radical oxidation can be prevented and treated, such as atherosclerosis and cellular senescence. In addition, Glabridin also has certain effects in lowering blood lipids and blood pressure.
