Do you think you look older than you feel because of the increasing wrinkles on your face? You certainly know that hydration is the key to good skin complexion. Hydration is vital for the elasticity and fresh look of your face and good hydration depends on the lipid class known as ceramides. Ceramides are bioactive lipids and are a major component of the stratum corneum – the outer layer of the epidermis. Ceramides are very important for prevention of the excessive loss of water from the skin because their function is to form a protective barrier thus helping to preserve the skin hydration and to maintain its elasticity. Unfortunately, during ageing the level of ceramides in the epidermis decreases resulting in the loss of skin’s moisture. As a result of this process the skin becomes less elastic and symptoms of ageing occur. And here comes the good news – you can supplement your diet with natural phytoceramides to maintain their level in the skin in order to restore its radiance and vitality. Swanson’s Phytoceramides formula offers you vegetable capsules which contain the patented Ceramosides® - a highly concentrated source of natural phytoceramides derived from non-GMO wheat. Ceramosides® contain no gluten and clinical trials have proven that they improve skin hydration by 21% in just two weeks and by more than 28% after a two-month use. This is a moisturiser which works thoroughly and no other cosmetic product can give you the benefits it brings to your skin.
