Hydrolized Collagen

5,000 mg

Form: Bioactive Collagen Peptides®. Type I Collagen. Natural protein. Excellent safety profile. Zero allergenic potential

Why: Bioactive Collagen Peptides® are not the same as collagen peptides. They both have similar spec sheets but dissimilar functionality. Bioactive Collagen Peptides® are a special composition of collagen peptides with guaranteed consistency and are optimized to stimulate connective tissue formation. These hydrolyzed peptides are much smaller than regular collagen molecules. This allows them to be rapidly absorbed by the body where they act on the deep, dermis-collagen layers of the skin. Collagen peptides show wide variety in composition, often very unspecific. Bioactive Collagen Peptides® have an excellent and rapid absorption after oral intake (Iwai et al., 2005). A significant and continuous increase of collagen-specific amino acids in human blood after collagen peptide supplementation has been reported (M.C. Gomez-Guillén, 2011), (Beuker et al. 1993). Scientifically validated in pre-clinical and clinical studies

Why 5,000 mg and no more? 5,000 mg of collagen: just the right amount. Studies demonstrate that with only 5 g of collagen, women notice positive effects after four weeks of treatment (Proksch et al., 2014), (Varani et al., 2001). No more and no less the amount of collagen is needed. Because collagen isn’t the only beauty ingredient in AETHERN® formula. More oral collagen is not equivalent to more assimilation and because our collagen is accompanied by micronutrients that ensure an optimal absorption and utilization by the body

Function:

Improves skin’s moisture, elasticity and smooths wrinkles

Counteracts skin’s aging in the dermal skin layer

Increase the skin’s moisture and slows the formation of wrinkles

Astaxanthin

1 mg

Form: Haematococcus pluvialis

Why: Pure Astaxanthin has high stability and does not degrade with the passage of time. Pure Astaxanthin does not need to be accompanied by diets high in fatty acids. Astaxanthin ester has poor bioavailability and needs a high concentration of fats in the diet to maximize its absorption in the intestinal bowel (Mercke Odeberg et al., 2003)

Why only 1mg of astaxanthin: Pure Astaxanthin is more effective than Astaxanthin ester. 1 mg of pure Astaxanthin: just the right amount to obtain it’s antioxidant benefits:

It is 6000 times more effective than vitamin C – 1 mg of Astaxanthin = 6000 mg of Vitamin C (Shivanda Pandey, 2010)

It is 800 times stronger than CoenzymeQ10 – 1 mg of Astaxanthin = 800 of CoenzymeQ10 (Shivanda Pandey, 2010)

Synthetic Astaxanthin is 20 times weaker than pure and natural Astaxanthin (Shivanda Pandey, 2010)

Function:

Potent antioxidant (100 times more potent than vitamin E)

Protects cells from oxidative damage

Protects from UV damage

Anti-inflammatory action

Silicon

30 mg

Form: Bamboo extract

Why: Bamboo extract is an organic mineral form, a form the body can assimilate more easily than inorganic Silicon forms such as selenite. (Li, Lin, He, Yang, & Lin, 2006)

Function:

Plays an important role in the formation and maintenance of connective tissue by contributing to an increase in the concentration of hydroxyproline in the dermis

Is an essential element for connective tissues (Price, Koval, & Langford, 2013)

Hyaluronic Acid

50 mg

Form: Bacterial fermentation, produced via streptococcal fermentation

Why: Traditionally Hyaluronic Acid was extracted from rooster combs, and now it is mainly produced via microbial fermentation with less environmental pollution (Liu, Liu, Li, Du, & Chen, 2011), (Janson, 2012). 50 mg of Hyaluronic Acid and no more. Because the combination of Hyaluronic Acid with collagen helps to protect and retain Hyaluronic Acid levels in the body obtaining a great hydration capacity in dermis and epidermis (Haroun, Frcp, & Dermatologist, 2003)

Function:

Helps to restore levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin (dermis and subcutaneous tissue)

Hydrates the skin (considerable moisturizing power)

Helps to reduce laughter lines and wrinkles

Helps in the reconstruction of connective tissue

BiorganicPharma exclusive Mediterranean Blend

2,000 mg

Form: Balanced blend of Mediterranean plant extracts and grape syrup rich in polyphenols (resveratrol, pycnogenol…). Standardized plant extract

Why: The combination of flavonoids, instead of a single flavonoid like resevaratrol, is more effective and has a synergistic action. The family of flavonoids has the capacity to link up with collagen (they exhibit great affinity with proteins rich in the hydrooxyproline and proline amino acids), aiding the internal protection of the skin and fostering youthful, elastic and flexible skin (Shi J, et al. 2003). They assist in encouraging the continuous production of collagen (Yamashita, 2002) and protect it against the enzymatic degradation (from metalloproteinases) of this structural protein. These benefits lead to an increase in the elasticity and smoothness of the skin

Function:

Improves micro-circulation of the dermis, enabling optimal nutrition and oxygenation, with hydration being optimized by 8% and the elasticity of the skin by 25% (Marini A, 2012), (Mercke Odeberg, Lignell, Pettersson, & Höglund, 2003)
