Rejuvenating Genetic Expression for Youthful, Beautiful Skin

Aging effects the expression of genes in skin. The production of collagen, elastin, and other healthy skin architectural decreases and bad enzymes (MMPs) increase in skin.

Equol works with your genes to reverse these negative effects in skin.  Not only does it dramatically boost your skin's ability to produce collagen and elastin, but it also inhibits the MMPs that break down youthful skin.

In clinical studies, Equol has shown reults that the cosmeceutical world has never seen before:

The main supportive protein of skin; a major component of connective tissue, giving it strength and flexibility
An elastic, fibrous protein, similar to collagen, and the major connective tissue protein of elastic fibers
Proteases, which ar eapable of degrading all kinds of extracellular matrix proteins like collagen, elastin, fibrillin, etc.
An inhibitor of MMP degradation; also able to promote cell proliferation

During in vitro testing, Equol showed a dramatic increase in skin’s elastin production which helps with firmness, “bounce-back” ability, and overall strength of skin architecture. It also showed a dramatic decrease in elastase, which breaks down elastin fibers in the skin.

During in vitro testing, Equol showed large increases in Collagen I and Collagen III, and an even greater decrease in the presence of Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs) which break down collagen and other architectural fibers.
