Product Description
Yucca extract is standardized to saponins, about 10–80%, or to yucconin around 40% or 60%, from the stalk or root.
In foods it is a foaming and flavour aid. In supplements it shows up in capsules aimed at cholesterol-style formulas. The feed-grade deodorizer and the food-grade saponin are not the same paperwork.
When buying, set the saponin percent and the grade: food, supplement, or feed.

Foaming from saponins. Trial it before you scale.
What saponin levels are available?
About 10–80% saponins, or about 40% and 60% yucconin.
Which document clears a human use?
A food or supplement certificate. A feed-mill spec does not.
