Artichoke Bulk Powder from the Amazon by Rain Tree 1lb

Purchase a one pound package of Raintree's sustainably harvested pure artichoke leaf powder (Cynara scolymus) - rich in active and beneficial phytochemicals that occur naturally in this plant. Artichoke is popular for its pleasant bitter taste, which is attributed mostly to a plant chemical called cynarin found in the green parts of the plant. Cynarin is considered one of artichoke's main biologically active chemicals. Other documented "active" chemicals include flavonoids, sesquiterpene lactones, polyphenols and caffeoylquinic acids. Raintree Nutrition's artichoke has been organically grown in Brazil and ground to a powder which is suitable to stuff into capsules or to prepare your own teas, extracts, and tinctures.
