PURITY IS OUR PRIORITY
This Blue Butterfly Flower is grown free of pesticides and herbicides in it's native Thailand. Before being freeze dried, it undergoes aqueous ozone treatment to ensure total purity.
Our Blue Butterfly Flower is made via a special freeze drying process that doesn't use the conventional mechanical grinding method, thus preserving the cellular structure and integrity of heat-sensitive compounds. This is pure Blue Butterfly Flower powder- no secondary ingredients, additives or fillers. Our sources are third party tested for heavy metals to ensure purity.

NATURE'S ANTI-AGING SOLUTION
In-vitro research has shown that Blue Butterfly Flower can inhibit glycation- the main metabolic process that leads to aging and wrinkling of the skin.¹ It also contains two antioxidants, anthocyanin and proanthocyanidin, which can support production of collagen and elastin.³
Best of all, it has a very neutral flavor similar to a light green tea, making it easy to add to just about any recipe!
AYURVEDIC BRAIN TONIC
For thousands of years, Blue Butterfly has been regarded as a powerful brain tonic in the Ayurvedic herbal system. This has been supported by modern research showing that Blue Butterfly may help to increase acetylcholine production. Acetylcholine is an essential neurotransmitter whose levels decline as we age.
YOUR IMAGINATION IS THE LIMIT!
The flavor is very neutral, allowing it to be very easily used in a wide variety of recipes! The only limit is your imagination... you can start just putting 1/8th of a teaspoon in a glass of water, blend a teaspoon into a chia pudding, smoothie, ice cream, or even combine it with our Chai Elixir Blends for a radiant blue superherb chai!
Ready for a different color? Just add lemon, lime or apple cider vinegar, and the blue color will instantly turn purple!
