AMLAAC®
The Ultimate Superfruit
Tradition, taste and superfruit science
Amla extract serves as a natural and highly effective antioxidant as it contains extremely high levels of ascorbic acid, ranging from 1,000 – 1,700 mg/100g of fruit. As such, this extract may play a role in decreasing oxidative stress, with 30 times more polyphenol than red wine, 10 times more vitamin C than lemon juice, 160 times more vitamin C than apples and more antioxidant activity than blueberries.
Bioactives American’s AMLAAC® is an amla extract produced using a proprietary water-extraction process that is designed to prevent oxidation and maintain an off-white color with quick processing technology. It is water-soluble, has a pleasant taste and can be used in both food and dietary supplements.
