Folic Acid is a water-soluble vitamin that is important in red blood cell formation, protein metabolism, growth and cell division. Folic Acid has been shown to work together with Vitamin B-6 and Vitamin B-12 to reduce blood levels of homocysteine, an amino acid that builds and maintains tissues. Elevated homocysteine levels can increase your risk of heart attack, stroke or loss of circulation in your hands and feet. It's also very important in pregnancy for the developing fetus.

Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that maintains skin integrity, helps heal wounds and is important in immune functions. Vitamin C is a redox agent. It acts as an antioxidant in some cases, and an oxidant in others. As an antioxidant, it helps to prevent cell damage by neutralizing "free radicals." Free radicals cause damage to cells. Some studies have shown that people who eat foods high in Vitamin C have lower rates of cancer and heart disease. It is not clear if taking Vitamin C supplements produces similar benefits. However a 2001 study indicates that supplementation with Vitamin C, certain other antioxidants and zinc may slow the progression of age-related macular degeneration. This combination of ingredients is in our Renew+ Skin Care formula.

Vitamin E is a powerful biological antioxidant. Antioxidants such as Vitamin E protect your cells against the effects of free radicals, which are potentially damaging by-products of the body's metabolism. Free radicals can cause cell damage that may contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease and cancer.

Acetyl L-Carnitine has been shown to protect brain cells against aging-related degeneration and improve mood, memory and cognition. The most important effect of Acetyl-L-Carnitine, however, is to maintain the function of the cell's energy powerhouse, the mitochondria.

Alpha Lipoic Acid is a highly potent antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals in the mitochondria, (the power plants of cells) where energy for all cellular activities is generated. Some nutritionists believe that mitochondrial free radicals play an important role in human aging.

Calcium the body's most plentiful a mineral, is essential for strong teeth and bones and for muscle and nerve function. Studies suggest that Calcium supplements, if taken regularly, help prevent osteoporosis by reducing bone loss.

Cantaloupe Extract is a botanical that has been shown to increase water retention in the skin making the skin appear younger. We include it in our anti-aging skin care products.

Chromium (Picolinate) has been shown to lower blood glucose (sugar). Chromium (Picolinate) has been found to decrease body fat and enhance lean body mass, while lowering blood cholesterol levels.

Coenzyme Q10 Studies have yielded information about how Coenzyme Q10 works in the body to produce energy and act as an antioxidant. Some studies have suggested that Coenzyme Q10 stimulates the immune system and increases resistance to disease.

Conjugated Linoleic Acid or CLA, is a naturally occurring nutrient shown to contribute to the growth of lean muscle, reduction of body fat and improved health. Linoleic Acid belongs to a family of essential fatty acids called omega-6 fatty acids and performs a number of important metabolic functions in the body. CLA has a slightly different molecular structure than linoleic acid and, as a result, different nutritional benefits. In addition to its body shaping benefits, research continues to build a case for CLA's antioxidant and anticarcinogenic properties.

Cysteine maintains the structure of proteins in the body and can also be converted into glucose and used as a source of energy.

DMAE is a very powerful antioxidant and free radical neutralizer that can stabilize liposome membranes, preventing rupture of these scavenger bodies, which would result in leakage of collected toxins and protein-damaging enzymes. It reverses the formation of lipofuscin that causes the so-called aging spots or liver spots. This pigment also tends to clog brain and nerve cells as we age. DMAE is beneficial to maintaining youthful-looking skin.

Gingko Biloba is a botanical that is a powerful antioxidant. Gingko Biloba, a readily available natural product, has been the focus of recent media reports as a potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease. Scientists examined how taking 120 mg a day of a Gingko Biloba extract affected the rate of cognitive decline in people with mild to moderately severe dementia due to Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia.

Green Tea Extract a botanical, is a bioflavonoid rich, potent extract used primarily for fighting free radicals. It contains a high content of Polyphenols, which are a class of bioflavonoids. Green Tea Extract contains a potent antioxidant, EGCG, which is over 200 times more powerful than Vitamin E in neutralizing the pro-oxidants and free radicals that attack lipids in the brain.

Grape Seed Extract another botanical, is an herb that helps protect cells from free radical damage while promoting healthy circulation it is rich in Polyphenols, a beneficial compound, high in antioxidants that helps to improve circulation.

Magnesium is needed for the efficient production of enzymes. It is also involved in protein metabolism, utilization of fats and carbohydrates and is necessary for proper nerve function.

Omega 3 and 6 Essential Fatty Acids are said to help regulate mental health problems because they enhance the ability of brain-cell receptors to comprehend mood-related signals from other neurons in the brain. In other words, they are believed to help keep the brain's entire traffic pattern of thoughts, reactions, and reflexes running smoothly and efficiently. As an added benefit, according to the FDA, consumption of EPA and DHA omega 3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.

Selenium is an essential trace mineral that the human body needs. It is an important part of antioxidant enzymes that protect cells against the effects of free radicals that are produced during normal oxygen metabolism.

Zinc is essential to the synthesis of DNA and RNA, of proteins, insulin and sperm. The body needs zinc to metabolize carbohydrates, fats, protein and alcohol; to dispose of carbon dioxide; to make good use of Vitamin A. More than seventy different enzymes require zinc to do their appointed work. Zinc boosts the immune system and makes wounds heal faster. It's integral to the growth and maintenance of body tissues.

Vitamin D Necessary for growth and development of bones & teeth. Important in prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Required for proper absorption & utilization of Calcium and Phosphorus.

Vitamin K An essential nutrient needed for bone formation and repair and for blood clotting. Vitamin K, along with Vitamin D and Calcium, play an important role in the prevention of the bone thinning condition called osteoporosis.

Biotin is necessary for both metabolism and growth in humans, particularly with reference to production of fatty acids, antibodies, digestive enzymes, and in Niacin (Vitamin B-3) metabolism.

Phosphorus An element that plays an important role in the body's use of carbohydrates and fats in the synthesis of protein for the growth, maintenance and repair of cells and tissue.

Iodine forms part of the hormones thyroxine and triiodothyronine which are necessary for the maintenance of metabolic rate, cellular metabolism and integrity of connective tissue.

Vanadium It is believed that Vanadium is probably essential to growth and involved in fat metabolism. A Vanadium deficiency can increase blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

Lycopene is responsible for the red color in tomato, grapefruit, watermelon and guava. Substantial research has documented Lycopene's potent antioxidant abilities, especially its ability to reduce lipid peroxidation, suggesting a decreased risk of Cardiovascular Disease. Lycopene's antioxidant abilities are currently being evaluated for its possible protective role in cancer prevention, especially cervical, prostate, pancreatic and stomach cancers.

How do Skin Care Products work?   

Your skin is designed to protect the inside of you.  It is designed to keep germs and harmful things from entering your body.  Your skin does allow moisture to escape which helps keep you cool.  But because your skin is actually a very effective barrier, not much is allowed to pass through it from the outside.

Topical skin care products which include creams, lotions and sprays work by covering the top most layer of skin with a coating that prevents the escape of moisture from the skin (called perspiration), making the skin seem softer. 

 

The upper most layer of your skin, consists mostly of dead skin cells that are ready to be washed off when you shower. The skin care products that coat the skin, do little to change the composition of the skin or make new developing skin firmer. These skin care products are cosmetic in nature.  Since they coat the skin, they tend to clog the pores creating a moisture barrier which prevents perspiration from happening.  This keeps your skin hydrated (full of water) and helps create the appearance that fine lines and wrinkles have disappeared.   They provide a temporary solution.

 

Some skin care products contain ingredients that tend to irritate delicate skin tissues, especially around the eyes.  These skin care products may contain Retin-A or other similar substances which tend to irritate the skin.  The body reacts to this with a tingling and sometimes a burning sensation.  Soon after, the body reacts to this irritation by flooding the tissue with fluids.  When this happens the tiny lines and wrinkles seem to disappear as the underlying, irritated skin, reacts to the trauma.  The wrinkles actually do disappear, for a time.  But when you sleep and wake up in the morning these skin care products must be reapplied for the effect to happen again.  Over time, your body can become accustomed to the ingredients in these skin care products and the cosmetic effect becomes minimal or stops happening.  These skin care products do little to change the nature of your skin and are temporary.

 

New skin care products contain compounds called pentapeptides -- small groups of long chain amino acids. The most popular creams boasting the new pentapeptide technology include Regenerist by Olay, Strivectin-SD by Klein Becker, Wrinkle Relax by DDF, and the Principal Secret "Reclaim" line. Doctors say there are no published medical studies showing they work for skin care. It's a big question mark.  Research on pentapeptides was done in relation to wound healing where its benefits were first studied. As part of the body's natural response to help skin heal, studies showed peptides are instrumental in increasing cells in the skin to produce more collagen. These products claim to boost collagen. But these studies were done on open wounds where the pentapeptides could come in direct contact with injured areas, not on the skin's surface. 

 

Collagen plays an important role in how skin ages. Collagen is the support structure that gives our skin a firm, young appearance. When levels decline, we lose that support and wrinkles begin to form. Some researchers believe that topically applying the pentapeptides on the skin might have that effect. But the amount of pentapeptides applied to the skin may not be enough to have that great an effect.  What can you do?
