(HBO) – Xa den, a plant scientifically named Celastrus hindsii Benth, is used to treat a number of liver diseases and inflammation, detoxify the body, prevent cancer, and aid cancer treatment. The Yen Tri Agricultural Cooperative in Yen Thuy district has formed a business based on concentrates made from the herb, with their product recognised as a three-star OCOP (One Commune, One Product) goods at the provincial level.
The cooperative’s Xa den concentrate has been recognised as
a three-star OCOP goods at provincial level.
In modern medicine, the concentrate is used to support the
elimination of tumors and the treatment of hepatitis, among others. Aiming to offer consumers best products possible, the
cooperative has been operating a standardised production process to ensure
quality and food safety.
Each 100gr of the traditional medicine is equivalent to 1.5
kg of dried xa den. The black-coloured product with a typical aroma dissolves
quickly in water and is very consumer friendly, with its container being
compact.
The cooperative has also worked to encourage and help local
households to cultivate the valuable herb. The Celastrus hindsii Benth product
has thus far brought about a stable output, helping to improve the lives of
farmers.
Bui Phi Nam, director of the Yen Tri cooperative, said the
business targets sustainable growth and becoming a leading brand of Celastrus
hindsii Benth concentrate in Vietnam. "We are committed to delivering best products and
services to customers," he added.
Each of its 100gr box is sold for 250,000 VND. From the
beginning of the year, the cooperative has sold over 1,000 boxes in Hoa Binh
and many other localities nationwide, including Ho Chi Minh City, Binh Duong,
Gia Lai, Binh Dinh, and Quang Ninh./.

Red grapefruit is a native crop of Tan Lac district, where the fertile soil and favourable climate create ideal conditions for its growth. With over 80% of the area being mountainous, at an altitude of 300-400 metres above sea level, red grapefruits here thrive on well-drained, fertile hillside soil. The region’s large temperature variation between day and night enhances the fruit's nutrient absorption. The local cultivation techniques also contribute to its uniqueness
