FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

What are the side effects of hibiscus extract?

While hibiscus is generally safe for consumption and has many health benefits, there are some potential side effects to be aware of, especially when taking high doses. These may include:
1. Lowering of blood pressure:  Hibiscus has been shown to have a mild blood-pressure-lowering effect, which can be beneficial for people with high blood pressure. However, in some cases, it may cause blood pressure to drop too low and lead to dizziness or fainting.
2. Interference with certain medications:  Hibiscus can interfere with some medications, including chloroquine, used to treat malaria, and some types of antiviral drugs.
3. Stomach upset:  Some people may experience stomach upset, including nausea, gas, and cramping, when consuming hibiscus.
4. Allergic reactions: In rare cases, hibiscus may cause an allergic reaction, which can result in hives, itching, or difficulty breathing.
As with any herbal supplement, it is important to talk to your healthcare provider before taking hibiscus extract, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking medications.

Hibiscus Flower Powder VS Hibiscus Flower Extract Powder?

Hibiscus flower powder is made by grinding dried hibiscus flowers into a fine powder. It is typically used as a natural food coloring or flavoring agent, as well as in traditional medicine as a remedy for a variety of health conditions.
Hibiscus flower extract powder, on the other hand, is made by extracting the active compounds from hibiscus flowers using a solvent, such as water or alcohol. This process concentrates the beneficial compounds, such as antioxidants, flavonoids, and polyphenols, into a more potent form than hibiscus flower powder.
Both hibiscus flower powder and hibiscus flower extract powder have health benefits, but hibiscus flower extract powder may be more effective due to its higher concentration of active compounds. However, it is important to note that hibiscus flower extract powder may also have a higher risk of potential side effects if taken in large amounts. It is best to consult with a healthcare provider before using either form of hibiscus as a dietary supplement.
