What Are The Benefits?

Promotes Weight Management:

Fat Metabolism Promotion: Raspberry ketones are believed to enhance the breakdown and metabolism of fatty acids in fat cells, promote fat burning, and help reduce body fat accumulation.
Appetite Control: May suppress appetite and help control food intake by affecting appetite-regulating hormones such as insulin, pepsin, and glucose-regulating peptide.

Provides Antioxidant Protection:

Antioxidant Effect: Raspberry ketone powder has strong antioxidant activity, which can neutralize the production of free radicals, reduce the damage caused by oxidative stress to the body, and help maintain the health of cells and tissues.
Anti-Inflammatory Effect: Raspberry ketone may reduce the symptoms of inflammatory response and related diseases by inhibiting inflammatory response and regulating the production of inflammatory cytokines.

Improve Cardiovascular Health:

Lowers Cholesterol: Thought to help lower total and LDL (bad) cholesterol levels in the blood, thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Regulates Blood Pressure: Raspberry ketones may have mild vasodilator effects that help lower blood pressure and maintain normal blood pressure levels.

Enhance Immune Function:

Immunomodulation: It may enhance the function of the immune system and improve the body's resistance to viruses and bacteria by regulating the activity of immune cells and inhibiting inflammatory responses.

Weight Loss Efficacy

It induces the decomposition of fat cells by increasing norepinephrine, prevents the increase in body weight and visceral weight of mice induced by high-fat diet, and reduces the content of triglyceride in the liver; effect to reduce body weight in obese rats. Japanese scholars have also conducted human experiments and found that raspberry ketone has a more obvious effect on reducing visceral fat than subcutaneous fat.

Rats' body weight, Lee's index and perirenal fat wet weight in different doses of raspberry ketone groups were significantly lower than those in the model group, indicating that raspberry ketone has a weight-loss effect. Obesity is the result of an imbalance between energy intake and consumption, which will inevitably lead to disorders of glucose and lipid metabolism. Compared with the control group, high-fat diets can induce obesity in rats while causing significant changes in the levels of blood sugar, blood TG, TC, and LDL-C. Increased, HDL-C levels decreased significantly. The levels of blood glucose, blood TG, TC, and LDL-C in the raspberry ketone group were significantly lower than those in the model group, while the level of HDL-C was significantly increased. It shows that raspberry ketone has the effect of lowering blood sugar and blood fat.

Current studies suggest that endogenous resistance to leptin is the basis of obesity. In the experiment, the serum leptin level of rats in the obesity model group was significantly higher than that in the control group, indicating the existence of leptin resistance. Leptin resistance and TNFα can produce and aggravate insulin resistance, while obese people tend to decompose visceral fat and produce excessive FFA. Increased FFA inhibits glucose oxidation and stimulates liver glycogen synthesis, which can further aggravate insulin resistance. In the experiment, the insulin and TNFα levels of rats in the obesity model group were significantly increased, while the FFA level and insulin index were significantly decreased, indicating the existence of insulin resistance. Compared with the model group, the levels of serum leptin, FFA and insulin index of the rats in the raspberry ketone group were significantly decreased, while the levels of insulin and TNFα were significantly increased. It shows that raspberry ketone can improve the leptin resistance and insulin resistance of obese rats induced by high-fat diet, which is of great significance in the prevention and treatment of obesity.

What Are The Application Directions?

Raspberry ketone powder is a flavorant approved as safe for use by the Flavor Manufacturers Association of America (FEMA) and the Council of Europe (COE), with FEMA number 2588. GB 2760-1996 stipulates that the dosage of raspberry ketone as edible flavor is 40~320 mg/kg, which can be used in raspberry, grape, pineapple, peach, plum, strawberry, red berry, jasmine, gardenia, tuberose and other fragrances. It can also be used as a modifying agent or fixative in daily flavors, food flavors, daily chemical flavors and tobacco flavors. It has become a spice with extremely high economic value after vanillin.

At the same time, it is also an important fine chemical intermediate.
In the cosmetics industry, it can be added to whitening cosmetics because of its whitening effect, and because raspberry ketone is a natural fragrance, it can also play a role in fixing fragrance.

In agriculture, raspberry ketone and its acetyl compounds are sex attractants of fruit flies, also known as sex pheromones. They are synthesized as pesticides, and their demand is increasing, far exceeding the amount used in food and cosmetics by several to dozens of times. .
In the pharmaceutical industry, because raspberry ketone has anti-inflammatory effects, it can be added to medicines; its composition with epicatechin gallate can be used for the prevention and treatment of obesity or non-insulin-dependent diabetes and comprehensive Obesity-related symptoms such as obesity; raspberry ketone and primary amine-generated Schiff base is an intermediate of the β-adrenoceptor agonist dobutamine used to treat myocardial contractility weakness. Other applications: Raspberry ketone is also used to make fishing baits.
