What is sophora Root Extract?

Sophora refers to plants in the Sophora genus, primarily Sophora flavescens and Sophora japonica, both valued in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and modern herbalism.

Sophora Root Extract Powder is derived from the roots of Sophora flavescens. Sophora is rich in bioactive alkaloids, particularly matrine and oxymatrine, which contribute to its anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antipruritic (anti-itch), and anticancer properties. Widely used in pharmaceuticals, dermatology, and nutraceuticals, sophora powder supports skin health, immune modulation, and liver protection.
