Bitter Melon (Momordica charantia) tablets made from ground leaves and fruits

What is Bitter Melon (Momordica charantia)?

Bitter melon is still considered a real insider tip in Europe. In its countries of origin, China and India, however, this medicinal plant has long been a staple for experienced doctors and therapists.
The herbaceous climbing plant not only contains remarkable compounds but is also quite the visual highlight. Along its shoots, which can grow up to five meters in length, it develops bright yellow, vanilla-scented flowers. In summer, cucumber-like fruits with wart-like skin form on the female blossoms. When ripe, these fruits burst open, revealing bright red flesh.
Known also as bitter gourd, balsam pear, or bitter cucumber, this plant does not thrive just anywhere. It has specific environmental requirements and prefers warm, humid, and sunny locations. Only in nutrient- and humus-rich soil does the bitter gourd unfold its full potential.

For our tablets, we use only leaves and fruits of bitter melon, as recommended in traditional applications. All processed plant parts come exclusively from ecologically valuable cultivation.
They are carefully chopped, gently dried, and finely ground. Only when all processing steps meet our strict quality standards is the raw material gently pressed into tablets.

The Insider Tip from the Far East

Bitter melon has been successfully used for a long time in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Indian Ayurveda. In its countries of origin, it is considered exceptionally healthy. However, its bitter taste might overwhelm Western palates, which is why tablets are a more pleasant option for Europeans. This way, we can enjoy the plant’s valuable nutrients—without the bitterness.

In traditional Chinese folk medicine, its bitter compounds are used for stomach and gallbladder issues. It is also applied in cases of worm infestations, hemorrhoids, and cramps. In Ayurveda, bitter melon is primarily used to help balance blood sugar levels. Experienced Indian therapists prescribe the plant, mainly for diabetes, due to the compound charantin. This secondary plant substance is chemically similar to human insulin.

Momordica charantia contains valuable compounds such as:

• Phytosterols such as charantin, chemically similar to insulin
• Macronutrients: proteins and carbohydrates
• Vitamins: A, B2, B12, C
• Minerals and trace elements: iron, calcium, phosphorus, copper, potassium
