The principle and the research

Strawberry polyphenols, a well hidden treasure

The strawberry only gave up its precious active antioxidants after a long research program in a laboratory specialised in the plant world. Although it has been used for many years for its fruit and leaves, the best resource of the plant, this special anti-aging polyphenol, lay hidden deep in its roots underground. Polyphenols are capable of trapping free radicals and combating their destructive action in the tissues. Tamalys complements this newly discovered polyphenol and we made it available in five high performance formulations.

The Tamalys research

Among natural compounds, the family of polyphenols is very widely represented and attention by their properties biological. Broadly speaking, these compounds are endowed properties antioxidant and anti-radicalaires and therefore have an interest for the areas cosmetic and therapeutic to combat Oxidising agents external such as cigarette smoke, UV, pollution... and therefore of protect the skin against premature aging. Way more specific, certain derivatives of phenolic compounds present properties biological very unique it is interesting to find. We do mention as an example the amincissantes properties of some of them. Tamalys here demonstrates the ability to use polyphenols extracted from roots a particular variety of cutter. Tamalys thus makes available to Desiring skins to stay young a new product original-based of Strawberry endowed properties protective and anti-ageing polyphenols.

Strawberry root extract anti-free radical action

When skin cells are irritated by UV, they produce toxic free radicals. This effectively produces accelerated aging in people who are often exposed to sunlight. The same effect is produced by other agents that attack the cells of the skin. We have shown that the organic extract of the roots of the strawberry plant have good anti-free radical properties. The extract is not toxic in the concentrations tested. We can see the capacity of the extract to trap the free radicals produced by skin cells subjected to UV.

Conclusion

Results We can see that exposure to UV significantly increases the level of free radicals. The extract shows a dose-dependent reduction of the toxic free radicals. The highest dose of the extract shows better results than vitamin C. Reference Specialists in bio-vegetal research.
