Product Description
Berry-Based Ingredients for Weight Management and Anti-Aging – Raspberry Ketone (98%-99%) Standardized Raspberry Extract
Product Description
Raspberry extract contains raspberry ketone and anthocyanins as the core active ingredients. It is derived from the dried mature fruits of Rubus idaeus (raspberry) and processed into a standardized, refined, stable raspberry ketone powder, with a raspberry ketone content of up to 98%-99%. As a berry ingredient rich in tannins, it has a research foundation in weight management, antioxidant, and skin anti-aging applications and is widely used in health supplements, functional foods, and personal care formulations. The product uses European imported raw materials, suitable for developing anti-aging and metabolic health products.
The application of raspberry extract is rapidly growing in anti-aging and sports recovery fields. Europe and North America are the main consumer markets. Raspberry ketone as a weight-loss ingredient is somewhat controversial.

Introduction of Plant Raw Materials
The raw material is the dried mature fruit of the Rubus idaeus L., a Rosaceae plant. Mainly produced in Northern Europe (Sweden, Finland, Russia), North America, and Northeast China. Raspberry is a berry rich in ellagitannins, which is metabolized in the body into urolithins, exhibiting effective antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
Core Efficacy
Raspberry (Rubus idaeus) extract is rich in ellagitannins, which can be metabolized in the body into urolithins. Relevant in vitro and human studies suggest it may support antioxidant and anti-aging effects.
Raspberry ketone has been shown in studies to support lipolytic metabolism in fat cells via activation of pathways such as AMPK, providing a research basis for weight management (its effects are dose-dependent and require further clinical validation). Overall, raspberry extract has considerable applications in weight management, antioxidant support, and skin anti-aging.
