Chinese Yam Powder

Dioscorea Opposita Root Powder
Chinese Yam Powder is a natural food-grade herbal powder processed from dried tubers of Dioscorea Opposita. Produced through raw material sorting, cleaning, low-temperature drying and physical fine grinding, this product adopts complete physical processing without solvent extraction or concentration. It retains natural yam mucilage polysaccharides, diosgenin, dietary fiber and inherent trace nutrients contained in original Chinese yam tubers.

Product Details

Common yam powder on the market may incorporate leftover fragments or excessive starch components, leading to light flavor and unstable nutritional content. Our Chinese yam powder selects plump, mature yam tubers with strict impurity removal. Low-temperature physical grinding protects heat-sensitive active substances, ensuring stable nutritional composition. The finished powder presents uniform off-white color, fine smooth texture and mild natural earthy-sweet flavor. No artificial colors, synthetic flavors or preservatives are added during processing. It suits clean-label formula development, functional food compounding and bulk herbal raw material export.
