What is Bamboo?
Bamboo (Bambusa spp.) is a plant-based ingredient derived from the shoots or leaves of bamboo species. It is commonly processed into extracts or powders rich in silica and other minerals. Bamboo is used in dietary supplements primarily marketed for joint health, often included for its mineral content and potential to support connective tissue formulations. It may also appear in products targeting skin, hair, and nail health due to its silica content. Bamboo extracts are valued in botanical blends and plant-based supplement formulations.
