Dihydroquercetin (DHQ), also known as Taxifolin, is a potent flavonoid compound recognized for its exceptional antioxidant properties.
Nature’s “Golden Antioxidant”
- Exceptional Antioxidant Capacity
DHQ neutralizes free radicals with an efficiency 20 times greater than Vitamin C and 5 times greater than Quercetin, rapidly scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) and protecting cell membranes and DNA from oxidative damage.
As the reduced form of quercetin, DHQ can be directly absorbed without metabolic conversion, achieving an oral bioavailability of over 90%, far surpassing standard flavonoids.
Naturally found in only a few sources—such as Siberian larch bark, grape seeds, and red onions—DHQ is extremely rare. Extracting 1–2 kg of high-purity DHQ requires processing over 1 ton of larch bark.
- Advanced Extraction Techniques
Supercritical CO₂ extraction or enzymatic hydrolysis are required to purify DHQ while preserving its bioactivity, making the production cost over 10 times higher than standard quercetin.
There are fewer than five suppliers worldwide of high-purity (≥98%) DHQ, with Russia and Finland holding core patents. Premium-grade DHQ remains in consistently high demand.
- A Treasure for Anti-Aging Formulas
Thanks to its unparalleled antioxidant power and rarity, DHQ has become a hallmark ingredient in high-end, precision anti-aging formulations, ideal for those seeking cell-level protection.
Patented Formulation and Scientific Assurance
Through advanced biohydrogenation fermentation, DHQ produced matches the molecular structure of natural DHQ and is recognized as “nature-identical.” Supported by proprietary patents, our DHQ-powered formulations ensure scientific reliability and outstanding efficacy.
