Cyanotis Vaga Extract Powder Manufacturers
Kintainutri® Cyanotis Vaga Extract Powder is a high-purity source of β-ecdysterone (20-hydroxyecdysone, CAS 5289-74-7) derived from the roots of the natural plant Cyanotis arachnoidea. Recognized as one of the richest plant sources of β-ecdysterone, Cyanotis Vaga can accumulate up to 5.5% of this active compound in its roots, making it an important botanical source for the commercial production of beta ecdysterone. Available in specifications ranging from 50% to 98% purity, this white to off-white powder is widely used in sports nutrition, dietary supplements, and functional foods.
What Is Cyanotis Vaga Extract Powder?
The Cyanotis Vaga (Cyanotis arachnoidea plant) belongs to the Commelina family. It is named "Pearl dew grass" in China because the whole plant is covered with soft hairs and the leaves flash like pearls when exposed to dew.Appearance:Its roots are fibrous, and the main stem is short. The petals are in blue-purple, blue, or white color, also the seeds are gray-brown. The flowering period is from June to September in China, and the fruiting period is from October.
Distribution:
Cyanotis Vaga plant mainly grows in subtropical places such as Fujian, Jiangxi, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Hong Kong, and other places in China.
Application:
The roots of the pearl dew plant are used in Chinese medicine with a slightly bitter taste. It has the effects of relieving pain, detoxifying meanwhile reducing swelling. People use it to treat rheumatism, waist and leg pain, numbness of limbs, edema, eczema, and other symptoms. From its roots, we also extract the active ingredient ecdysone powder.

How To Make Cyanotis Vaga Extract Powder?
● Raw Material Inspection & Storage: Qualified Cyanotis arachnoidea raw materials undergo quality verification before warehouse storage.
● Solvent Extraction & Separation: The raw materials are loaded into extraction tanks for solvent extraction, yielding target extract solution and dregs.
● Concentration & Liquid Extraction: The extract solution is concentrated under vacuum, followed by organic solvent extraction to enrich active compounds.
● Purification & Crystallization: The enriched phase undergoes further purification and controlled crystallization to yield crude crystals.
● Dehydration & Drying: Crude crystals are dehydrated and temperature-dried to form high-purity $\beta$-Ecdysterone crystals.
● Processing & Quality Control: Crystals are milled, sieved, and blended, followed by stringent QA/QC analysis (Assay via HPLC, Loss on Drying, Heavy Metals, Microbes).
● Packaging & Storage: Batch-certified finished products are packed, stored, and prepared for global shipping.

Cyanotis Vaga Extract Powder Benefits
Cyanotis Vaga Extract Muscle Growth
By activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and simultaneously upregulating glycolysis, mitochondrial respiration, and protein synthesis, Cyanotis Vaga Extract a synergistic increase in both energy production and consumption, thereby providing the necessary energy and material foundation for muscle growth. Regarding athletic performance, β-ecdysterone enhances endurance, alleviates fatigue, and promotes post-exercise recovery. Furthermore, it helps maintain bone density and strength, supporting skeletal health, making it suitable for use in sports nutrition and bone health formulations.
Beta Ecdysterone and Metabolic Regulation
β-Ecdysterone offers multifaceted benefits for metabolic regulation. It boosts metabolic rates and promotes fat burning, helping to achieve a leaner body composition, while simultaneously enhancing immune function to aid the body in resisting infections and diseases. Its metabolic regulatory effects are cell-selective: it promotes anabolism and energy production in normal cells (such as muscle and fibroblast cells) while inhibiting aberrant metabolic reprogramming in tumor cells. Kintainutri® β-Ecdysterone is suitable for formulation development in sectors such as sports nutrition, weight management, and health products.
What Is Cyanotis Vaga Extract Powder Used For？
Pharmaceuticals And Dietary Supplements
Cyanotis vaga extract powder demonstrates diverse applications in the fields of pharmaceuticals and health supplements. In medicine, it offers benefits such as promoting cell growth, exerting anti-inflammatory effects (e.g., alleviating arthritis), lowering blood sugar (aiding in the management of Type 2 diabetes), and potentially acting against tumors, making it suitable for use as an adjunct therapy for related conditions.
In the health supplement sector, it is frequently incorporated into sports nutrition products due to its ability to promote protein synthesis, combat fatigue, and improve liver function; it helps increase muscle protein and enhance stress resilience without relying on androgen receptors, thereby avoiding the side effects associated with traditional anabolic steroids.
Animal Husbandry
In silkworm farming, the addition of β-ecdysone regulates growth and development, increases silk output, promotes cocoon formation, and enhances both the yield and quality of the silk. In shrimp and crab aquaculture, ecdysone is a crucial substance for the growth, development, and molting of crustaceans; serving as a primary ingredient in "molting agents," it facilitates faster and smoother molting, shortens the molting cycle, improves molting success rates, effectively prevents cannibalism caused by failed molts, and significantly boosts survival rates and the proportion of marketable-sized animals.
Safety Of Cyanotis Vaga Extract Powder
20-Hydroxyecdysone of cyanotis vaga extract powder demonstrates a good safety profile in humans; however, due to its anabolic activity, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has included it in its 2020 Monitoring Program to track its use among athletes. Although it is not currently on the Prohibited List, its potential to enhance muscle strength and athletic performance has drawn regulatory attention, and athletes as well as product formulators should stay informed about relevant regulatory developments.
