"The Beauty Mushroom”?  4 Reasons Why We’re Drinking It

As far as mushrooms go, Tremella, also known as “The Beauty Mushroom” and the Giver of Eternal Beauty and Youth (ummm, we’re drinking to that) really is superior in the radiant skin health department.

So in honour of that, we’ve put together our top four must-have reasons to incorporate Tremella into your routine every-damn-day:

Top 5 Benefits of Tremella

1

Intensive Hydration

 

Tremella has a unique gelatinous structure full of long chain sugars, called polysaccharides.

This combination creates a remarkable ability to retain water, forming a film to protect skin, strengthening and repairing the skin barrier, smoothing skin tone and texture and locking in lasting moisture.

With its water-locking properties and role in preventing trans-dermal water loss, Tremella helps to hydrate skin and body cells in the same way as a hyaluronic acid.

Drawing moisture into skin and locking it in place gives Tremella its reputation as the ‘Beauty Mushroom’, helping skin radiate with intense hydration.

Although similar in benefit, Tremella actually has significantly smaller particles than Hyaluronic Acid, and can hold five times the amount of water compared to hyaluronic acid.

Overall, Tremella is known for giving skin a soft, smooth, strengthened glow.

 

 

2

Reduces fine lines + wrinkles

 

Skin health, wrinkle depth and ageing is all directly linked to dehydration in the skin.

With short term and prolonged dehydration the intracellular metabolism is distressed and cell membrane stability is destroyed, causing the skin to lose its elasticity, degrade collagen and cause wrinkle formation.

With powerful antioxidant capacity and free-radical destroying properties, Tremella also works to repair and prevent free radical damage, helping to prevent wrinkles and environmental ageing before it starts.

Rich in antioxidants



The skin suffers from some of its greatest damage and unnecessary ageing due to damage caused by free-radicals.

Free radical damage in the skin can present as lifeless, dull, thickened skin with uneven tones, hyper pigmentation, breakouts, fine lines and wrinkles.

To prevent and repair free radical damage in real time, an abundance of rich antioxidants need to be present in the body.

As a potent antioxidant, tremella surges the skin to defend and destroy oxidative damage and distress within the skin cells. Maintaining antioxidant levels in the body long term, helps fight inflammation, reduce hyperpigmentation, breakouts and environmental damage.

Highest natural source of Vitamin D

 

Tremella also delivers the richest natural source of the precursors needed for Vitamin D synthesis and absorption in the skin, called Pro-Vitamin D.

Tremella synergistically complements the amino acids, vitamin E and vitamin C and antioxidants, amplifying skin health, collagen production and collagen protection for radiant skin.

Vitamin D has impressive skin healing abilities, influencing cell growth, wound healing, and maintaining the barrier function of the skin.

With ageing and collagen degradation, the skin’s natural ability to create Vitamin D decreases by 75%, making it crucial to support your health and your skin with lots of sunshine and rich sources of natural Vitamin D, like Tremella.

In short, get your tremella and enjoy radiant, hydrated, healthy skin and adaptogenic benefits, if not yesterday, then most definitely today.

And we recommend our Vegan Collagen Creamer do the trick.
