Bamboo leaf has a long history of food and medical application in China. According to the related research work,effective ingredients of bamboo leaf extract include flavone,phenolic acid,lactone,polyose,amino acid,microelements,etc,with enhanced effects of anti-radical and blood vessel disease.
Bamboo leaf extract presents also very good technical features,as it is easy to dissolve in hot water and low-density alcohol with high thermal and water stability,processing flexibility,and high oxidation prevention stability. Data show that bamboo contains 1-5% organic silicon, which is more suitable for human body absorption than inorganic silicon. It can protect teeth, strengthen bones, promote hair growth and metabolism, reduce cholesterol and prevent senile dementia. Therefore, bamboo organic silicon products are very popular in The European and American markets. Bamboo is a treasure all over the body. In addition to extracting bamboo silicon, bamboo leaf flavonoids, bamboo vinegar, bamboo leaf polysaccharide, bamboo leaf protein, and bamboo leaf porphyrin compounds can be extracted and refined. Bamboo charcoal can be burned and bamboo waste hydrolyzed to prepare bio-based materials.
