Mulberry leaf comes from Morus alba. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Sang Ye is valued for supporting seasonal comfort and overall balance. It’s naturally caffeine-free.
2) How is mulberry leaf different from mulberry berries?
Leaves are used for metabolic and seasonal support (DNJ, flavonoids). Berries (goji is a different species) are typically used for eye and antioxidant support; they contain different nutrient profiles.
3) Why does it work?
Mulberry leaves contain DNJ (1-deoxynojirimycin), which helps slow the breakdown of carbohydrates; plus flavonoids, polyphenols (e.g., quercetin), chlorogenic acid, vitamins C & E, and minerals that support antioxidant defenses and overall wellness.
4) How do I use mulberry leaf powder?
Common prep includes:
-
Tea: ½–1 tsp powder per 8–10 oz hot water; whisk, steep 5–7 mins, then sip.
-
Smoothies/foods: Blend ¼–½ tsp into smoothies, yogurt, or oatmeal.
-

Yes, mulberry leaf is naturally caffeine-free and gluten-free. (Always check for cross-contamination if you have allergies.)
7) Can mulberry leaf support healthy blood sugar?
It supports healthy post-meal glucose responses (within the normal range), largely attributed to DNJ’s carbohydrate-modulating action. It’s an educational note—not a treatment.
8) Are there any cautions or interactions?
-
If you take blood sugar or blood pressure medications, or anticoagulants, consult your healthcare professional.

Avoid use during pregnancy or nursing unless advised by a professional.
