The Science Behind Elemente

How Free Radicals Cause Aging

Free radicals are unstable molecules that cause oxidative damage by stealing electrons from surrounding molecules, thereby disrupting activitiy in the body's cells. They are produced when the body breaks down food or by cigarette smoke, toxic chemicals and excess sunlight.

Free radical damage causes wrinkles by activiting enzymes that break down collagen.

Antioxidants Combat Free Radicals

Antioxidants are substances that soak up free radicals like sponges. Although the human body can produce antioxidants, these antioxidants cannot totally expel excess free radicals. Hence experts advise reinforcing them with an antioxidant-rich diet and topical application of antioxidants to delay signs of aging.

Six of the BEST antioxidant-rich sources found in Nature:

• Ginseng berry

Ginseng berry is rare. You can hardly see it in the market. But Research shows that it contains some of Nature's best antioxidants that are important for healthy, glowing skin. For instance, it has 1.4 times more antioxidant activity than vitamin C. It plays a vital role in reducing environmental and oxidative stress, a precursor to premature aging. When applied topically, ginseng berry extract helps increase skin hydration and elasticity while delaying signs of premature aging.

• Cactus Fruit

Cactus fruit is rich in antioxidants and phytochemicals that contribute to a healthy body. In fact, cactus fruit boasts 7 times more antioxidant activity than vitamin C. Research indicated that cactus fruit may also help prevent DNA damage, promote cell repair and renewal, encourage phagocytic activity and improve skin's texture, softness and appearance. In addition, Scientists found that cactus fruit plays a pivotal role in wound healing both inside the body and on the skin's surface.

• Cactus

Research indicates that the high levels of nutrients and antioxidants in cactus canprevent DNA damage, improve the structure and appearance of skin, promote cell renewal and help delay skin's aging process. When applied to skin, cactus extract's anti-inflammatory abilities help speed up wound healing and improve the appearance of scars. Cactus extract also acts as a moisturizer and helps toprevent water evaporation from the stratum corneum layer of skin.

• Grape Seed

Oligomeric Proanthocyanidin, better known as OPC, is a powerful antioxidant found in grape seed. Research shows that grape seed extract has 20 times more antioxidant activity than vitamin C and 50 times more than vitamin E, and is easily absorbed by the body. In addition, grape seed extract can support collagen structures and decrease UV-ray damage to skin, thereby preventing premature wrinkles and reducing signs of aging for a youthful, radiant appearance.

• Rose

Scientific research has verified that valuable antioxidants and nutrients in rose help prevent DNA damage, and promote wound healing in addition to improving skin texture and appearance. Rose also contains up to 50 times the amount of antioxidants found in lemons, which greatly enhance the body's ability to produce collagen, protect itself from harmful UV rays, combat colds, prevent disease and fight against free radicals. In addition, rose is a gentle astringent with cleansing, purifying, softening, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. It enhances beauty by helping to lighten pigmentation for a smoother, fairer complexion.

• Seaweed

Seaweed is an excellent source of nutrition immensely beneficial to health as it concentrates all of the ocean's nutrients in a perfect balance for humans. Seaweed is especially potent for anti-aging skincare as it has the ability to help inskin repair, skin elasticity, firmness and prevent blood clotting, and eliminate toxins from the skin, besides treating and relieving burns. In addition, seaweed helps inhibit free radical damage, stimulate collagen synthesis and cellular turnover. As such, it is the perfect substance for the body and skin, whether eaten or applied topically.

Consuming and applying plant foods rich in antioxidants will allow our body to produce its own collagen.
