What Is Honokiol and Where Does It Come From?Updated 3 hours ago

Codeage Liposomal Honokiol+ delivers 250mg of Honokiol per capsule, sourced from Magnolia Bark Extract (Magnolia officinalis). Honokiol is a naturally occurring polyphenolic compound found in the bark, leaves, and seed cones of trees in the Magnolia genus — a plant with a long history of use in traditional botanical practices across Asia.


What Is Honokiol?

Honokiol is one of the primary bioactive compounds found in Magnolia officinalis — commonly referred to as Magnolia bark. It is a biphenolic compound — meaning it contains two phenol rings — and belongs to the broader family of polyphenols, a class of plant-derived compounds widely studied in nutritional science.

Honokiol is distinct from other plant polyphenols in its chemical structure. It is found naturally alongside Magnolol, another bioactive compound present in Magnolia bark, and the two are often referenced together in botanical supplement formulations.


What Is Magnolia officinalis?

Magnolia officinalis is a deciduous tree native to central and southern China. Its bark has been used in traditional botanical practices for centuries. In the modern dietary supplement industry, extracts from Magnolia bark are used as a source of Honokiol and Magnolol.

The Codeage Liposomal Honokiol+ uses Magnolia Bark Extract as its source of Honokiol, delivering 250mg per capsule alongside 100mg of Grape Seed Extract (Vitis vinifera).


Why Use Liposomal Delivery for Honokiol?

Honokiol is a lipophilic compound — meaning it is fat-soluble rather than water-soluble. The Codeage Helix Liposomal Delivery system uses phospholipids from non-GMO sunflower lecithin, including phosphatidylcholine, to encapsulate lipophilic ingredients within a lipid-based structure designed to support their stability and delivery in capsule form.
