The Organicsio Advantage
Our Clinacanthus nutans stock is cultivated in distinct micro-climate zones optimized for flavonoid retention. Unlike wild-harvested variants, Organicsio utilizes precision shade-netting technology (50-70% occlusion) to reduce UV stress, resulting in a 25% higher concentration of Shaftoside and Orientin. Every batch undergoes rigorous HPLC profiling to ensure the absence of heavy metals commonly found in unmonitored tropical soil.
