Human skin aging is mainly due to the loss of collagen and aging in the skin. So protecting the collagen, reducing the damage becomes the direction for research and development of most skin care products. It is the target for beauty industry over the years. Recently, the haematococcus pluvialis is recognized as the best biological nature in production of natural astaxanthin. As a new creature protecting the biological collagen, it has wide range of cognitiveness for the biosphere. The experts agree that: the haematococcus pluvialis is the carotenoid synthesis product. Its astaxanthin has functions of antioxidant and protecting collagen. The effect is 10 times than the B-carotene, 75 times than alpha lipoic acid 75 times and 1000 times than the vitamin E.
Collagen is the body of the most abundant proteins, the composition of human skin, and 70% collagen composition. Is the desire of everyone to keep the skin full of elasticity and vitality, but life there are always many factors that will hurt it: the increase of age and excessive work pressure will lead to singlet oxygen overactive, unable to maintain the skin's natural metabolism to normal reduce capacity; radiation damage of ultraviolet rays and computer will damage the collagen and support skin collagen. To keep skin in top condition, we have to do is: to reduce the singlet oxygen and ultraviolet radiation damage and external stimuli, help and avoid premature aging; repair, bred and injected collagen loss, support the skin itself function of the natural functioning.
The astaxanthin has a powerful ability to protect collagen. Haematococcus pluvialis a single-cell green algae in fresh water, the algae accumulation of astaxanthin and red, hence the name red ball algae, because of the rain in the green algae species, also known as haematococcus pluvialis. China Agricultural University experts claim that the rain pluvialis has natural astaxanthin. The singlet oxygen is most detrimental to skin health, it has a superior ability to resist, and can also repeatedly play a role.
Rain pluvialis to protect collagen, mainly in the following two aspects: First, with the singlet oxygen combat, singlet oxygen generated by ultraviolet radiation and other external injuries, and pressure, it would disrupt the balance of collagen and elastin, resulting in skin aging, rain pluvialis extract the essence, can effectively resist and clear of singlet oxygen, thereby maintaining the balance of the skin. Is to allow the oxidation of sebum is not easy to produce, maintain moisture intercellular lipids from the skin, because reactive oxygen species, the surface of the skin to produce a lot of lipid peroxidation, so that the skin loses moisture and luster. The rain Health of reactive oxygen species in the lipid combat with cells of the red ball algae essence, in order to maintain skin moisture and vitality.
In addition to protect the skin's collagen, as the king of the antioxidant, the physiological and biological functions of cosmetic raw material haematococcus pluvialis have reached more than 100 kinds. As a revolutionary anti-oxidation product of 21st century, rain pluvialis deserved. At present, in Europe and the United States, Japan, Southeast Asia and other countries, the haematococcus pluvialis has been further promoted and applied. In October 2009, the haematococcus pluvialis as a food additive has also been approved to enter the Chinese market.
