Ectoin the Natural Cell Protection Factor
Ectoin
Ectoin is an innovative, natural active substance. It forms large hydration shells
and is hence a strong water structure former. Tests have shown that Ectoin
supports the repair and protective mechanisms of the cells.
HSP
In cases of
external stress such as UV-irradiation, heat and other physical and chemical
stress factors, human skin cells are able to produce so-called stress-proteins
or Heat-Shock Proteins (HSP) which help the cells to cope with these damaging external factors
STRESS-DEFENSE
Skin is also exposed to a variety of other external stress factors daily. Ectoin
provides an efficient stress-defense for the skin and prevention of the visible
signs of ageing.
proven to work
It has been shown that human skin cells pretreated with Ectoin can protect themselves about 2 to 3 times faster than non-treated skin
cells under temperature stress conditions. This guarantees the survival of the
cells and protects them against external stress. In addition induction of the
natural repair mechanisms of the skin cells is accelerated.
