AGEING FROM THE INSIDE OUT

As skin ages, these structures and components deteriorate. Some of the deterioration is preprogrammed into our systems and falls under the category of “intrinsic aging”—essentially, the body’s way of winding down. It’s a natural, progressive process that, on the surface, manifests in thinner, weaker, and less-elastic skin. But what’s going on underneath is much more complex.

 Intrinsic aging is characterized by “a decline and/or changes in the chemical structure and three-dimensional organization of collagen and glycosaminoglycans. The percentage of hyaluronic acid in the skin decreases, which results in the loss of hydration and moisture. Meanwhile, elasticity and firmness give way to the appearance of wrinkles as collagen and elastin breakdown increases.

 A cosmeceutical is a product or formula that contains an important nutritional component such as an herb, mineral or functional dietary nutrient that is ingested for the specific health benefits and appearance of the consumer. And the appeal of “natural” is certainly helping the growth of the market. From what the past few years have indicated, consumers show a strong leaning toward the natural versus the synthetic, especially if the natural may work just as well or better. Consumers are starting to understand, at least on a basic level, what researchers have been seeing for years—components that protect the plant, and the mechanisms by which they do this, are frequently the same as that which protect the human.

It is a known fact that certain herbs contribute to healthy skin and support collagen, an essential building block for the skin, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. Since inflammation compromises the integrity of collagen, Aloe vera, long known for its anti-inflammatory capabilities, would be a wise choice for many skin care and nutritional supplement products. Aloe has also long been cited for its wonderful moisturizing, detoxification, wound healing, and immune-stimulating properties. In fact, a scientific study carried out on the immune regulatory activity of Aloe vera has shown that applied topically, aloe has the ability to help repair damage to skin cells caused by exposure to the sun. Studies show that Aloe vera improves the skin’s ability to hydrate itself, aids in the removal of dead skin cells, and has an effective penetrating ability that helps transport healthy substances through the skin.

Aloe vera is a natural compound that has been used for centuries for its skin health benefits and has been shown in a more recent study to serve as a carrier of topical ingredients into the skin and tissues, increasing efficacy, according to Apps. “This is in addition to its roles as a detoxifying/antioxidant ingredient, immuno-regulatory ingredient that helps the skin and immune system recover from the negative impact of UV light, and compound that helps the skin to counteract its lack of resilience and tone from natural, age-related loss of collagen and reinforce the skin’s supportive network for a firmer look.
