History:

Eucommia is mainly grown in temperate regions of Asia mostly in China such as Guizhou, Sichuan, Hunan. The medicinal use of Eucommia ulmoides dates back to ancient Traditional Medicinal Chinese (TCM) including the texts of Yellow Emperor’s Internal Classic (Huangdi Neijing) (475-221BC) .
It has been used classically as a combination with other medicinal herbs or as a single agent to treat lower back pain and knees and strengthening the tendons and bones.

What is Chlorogenic acid?

Chlorogenic acid is a family of naturally occurring organic compounds. These are esters of cinnamic acids and (-)-quinic acid. It is an important biosynthetic intermediate. It also is one of the phenols found in Eucommia ulmoides leaf, in Green Coffee Bean, Honey Suckle Flower, in the bamboo Phyllostachys edulis as well as many other plants. This compound, long known as an antioxidant, also slows the release of glucose into the bloodstream after a meal. Structurally, chlorogenic acid (CGA) is the ester formed between caffeic acid and (L)-quinic acid (1L-1(OH),3,4/5-tetrahydroxycyclohexanecarboxylic acid). Isomerization of chlorogenic acid have been reported with 3 isomerizations of the quinic acid in position 3 (3-CQA), 4 (4-CGA) and 5 (5-CQA). Isomerisation at position 1 has not yet been reported. This acid is an important intermediate in lignin biosynthesis. Chlorogenic acid is marketed under the tradename Svetol in Norway and the United Kingdom as a food active ingredient used in coffee, chewing gum, and mints to promote weight reduction.
