Overview
Arugula extract is derived from the leaves of Eruca vesicaria subsp. sativa, commonly known as arugula or rocket. The extract captures the plant’s bioactive compounds in a concentrated form, making it easier to incorporate its health benefits into supplements, skincare, and functional foods. It retains the peppery, slightly bitter profile of fresh arugula but is used primarily for its therapeutic properties rather than its flavor.
Benefits
Antioxidant Properties
Arugula extract is rich in antioxidants, which help neutralize free radicals, reducing oxidative stress and protecting cells from damage. This contributes to overall cellular health and may reduce the risk of chronic diseases.
Supports Cardiovascular Health
The nitrates in arugula extract can help improve blood circulation, lower blood pressure, and enhance endothelial function, contributing to better heart health.
Anti-Inflammatory Effects
Contains glucosinolates that convert into isothiocyanates, compounds known for their anti-inflammatory properties, which may help reduce inflammation in conditions like arthritis and other inflammatory disorders.
Detoxification and Cancer Prevention
The sulfur-containing compounds in arugula extract aid in detoxifying the body and may help prevent cancer by inhibiting the growth of cancer cells and protecting against DNA damage.
Supports Bone Health
High in vitamin K, which is essential for bone mineralization and helps prevent bone loss, making it beneficial for maintaining strong bones.
Boosts Immune System
The vitamin C and other phytochemicals in arugula extract help strengthen the immune system, enhancing the body’s ability to fight infections.
Promotes Digestive Health
Rich in fiber and compounds that support gut health, arugula extract aids digestion by promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria and maintaining a healthy digestive tract.
Enhances Skin Health
Antioxidants in arugula extract, such as vitamins A and C, support skin health by protecting against environmental stressors and promoting collagen production.
