Earth Made Nutritions Inc. supplies North American supplement, functional food, and nutrition businesses with professional-grade botanical ingredients, including Milk Thistle seed Powder.
Our distinguishing factor:
Silibum marianum seed powder: 25kg MOQ, always in stock.

You can't afford ingredient inconsistencies that throw off entire production runs. Our standardized processing ensures:
· Uniform particle distribution – 95% through 80-mesh means no clumping in capsules or uneven mixing in blends
· Stable moisture content – Loss on drying ≤5.0% prevents degradation during storage
· Controlled bulk density (0.45-0.60 g/ml) – your equipment settings stay consistent batch after batch
Real impact: A supplement manufacturer in Texas reduced their reformulation time by 40% after switching to our powder because of batch-to-batch reliability.
Our powder is natural.
• ✔ Soluble in ethanol, methanol, acetone
·✘ Water-insoluble (vital for formulation planning)
For beverage makers, we suggest micro-encapsulation or oil-suspension methods. Options for your product can be discussed with our R&D team.
Manufacturers of capsules benefit from small particle size and regulated moisture content to minimise caking and ensure seamless encapsulation.

Our technology retains essential natural ingredients while assuring production consistency:
1. Raw Material Selection - We use certified, traceable sources for seeds.
2. Ethanol-based extraction (no harmful solvents, clean-label friendly)
3. Concentration: Vacuum evaporation to 10-40% solids.
4. Spray Drying — Rapid, consistent drying using high-pressure atomisation at regulated temperatures (150-220°C).
5. Quality Testing - Particle size, moisture, microbiological limitations, and heavy metals evaluated in each batch.
The result?A shelf-stable, predictable-handling powder that fits your procedures.
Technical note: Milk thistle seeds naturally have a moderate odour and astringent taste. Consumer goods flavor-masking techniques are available from our team.
Particle size of our hard capsules is compatible with common encapsulation equipment. Usually 200-300mg each pill.
For softgels, suspend in oil carriers (e.g., MCT oil, olive oil) due to water insolubility Given capsule size, we can suggest ratios.
For tablets, add binders such microcrystalline cellulose. The powder compresses easily with tableting equipment.
Protein Powders: Blends well with other powder sources. Improve dispersibility using lecithin or gum arabic.
Extruded Nutrition Bars are heat-stable up to 180°C.
Embulsification is needed for beverages. Explore nano-emulsion technology for clear beverages.
For pet nutrition, our powder satisfies tight heavy metal limitations. Popular in cat and dog liver support formulations.
