SCIENCE BEHIND POLYPHENOLS

Ancient Wisdom – New Science

Fruits and vegetables have been known for their health and longevity benefits for centuries. New scientific evidence better explains why – polyphenols.

WHAT ARE POLYPHENOLS?

Polyphenols are plant-based compounds. Different ones have been studied for different benefits.

Anthocyanins: cognitive health. Ellagic acid: skin health. Cocoa flavanols: mood health. EGCG: immune health.

HOW DO POLYPHENOLS WORK?

Rapidly growing evidence suggests that polyphenols slow processes that drive normal aging by:

Reducing inflammation

Improving mitochondrial function
Improving the gut environment

POLYPHENOLS IN CLEVER

CLEVER contains pomegranate extract with 300 mg of ellagic acid (EA) and berry extract with 100 mg of anthocyanins, and is an efficient way to get more polyphenols.

ELLAGIC ACID & SKIN HEALTH

Science shows that EA improves skin radiance and tone, reduces the appearance of fine lines, and supports collagen and elastin.

Clinical studies have shown that 100–200 mg/day of EA improved skin radiance in 4 weeks and that 300 mg/day of pomegranate extract improved the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in 60 days.†

ANTHOCYANINS & COGNITIVE HEALTH

Science shows that anthocyanin-rich diets have cognitive health benefits and that anthocyanins cross the blood-brain barrier.

One clinical study showed that anthocyanins at ≥ 80 mg/day reduced oxidative stress and inflammation, drivers of normal brain aging, in as little as 14 days.†

WHY NOT JUST EAT MORE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES?

In reality, most people don’t get 5–7 servings a day.

Even those who do, often don’t get enough of the right types of polyphenols to maximize the longevity benefits.

Skinja is not meant to replace whole foods.

But, it’s designed to help close the polyphenol gap.

US VS. THEM

There’s a lot of noise in this category. Unlike many competitors, with Skinja, there is:

  • No hiding polyphenol content behind proprietary or vague ingredient names
  • No claims without scientific grounding
  • No “one product does everything” messaging
  • No added sugar or unnecessary ingredients

Just transparent and science-based doses of polyphenols, collagen peptides, and fiber to be used as a ritual.
