Fight AGEs: Sea Buckthorn

A recent study shines a spotlight on the promising potential of Sea Buckthorn leaf extract in the fight against Advanced Glycation Endproducts (AGEs). These harmful compounds, which form when proteins or fats mix with sugar in the bloodstream, are a hidden cause of premature ageing and various health issues.

The research underscores the power of Sea Buckthorn leaf extract, noting its high concentration of vigorous antioxidants like Isorhamnetin. This potent ingredient helps inhibit AGEs formation. In lab tests, the extract at a dose of 200 μg/ml curtailed the fructose-induced formation of AGEs by an impressive 72.2% [1]. Notably, the extract reduced all investigated AGEs-bound peptide ions, a finding confirmed by UPLC-MS/MS analysis.

The extract also packs a powerful antioxidant punch, rivaling ABTS and DPPH assays, safeguarding against diseases linked to AGEs formation and oxidative stress. AGEs impact overall health and skin appearance, triggering oxidative stress, inflammation, and premature aging. Skin loses collagen, deepening wrinkles and fine lines, leading to uneven skin tone and texture, and a dull, puffy look.

Explore the power of Sea Buckthorn Leaf Extract today and arm your products with a promising ally against AGEs and their damaging effects.
