Hasunuma-Artepillin_C-Plant (IMAGE) Kobe University Caption Artepillin C is an herbal medicinal product with many beneficial effects on human health. It is commercially available as the active ingredient in Brazilian green propolis but is also produced by a few other plants such as Artemisia capillaris native to Japan. These plants produce the compound in small and inconsistent amounts as well as in mixture with many other compounds, making its large-scale production impossible.
