Why you choose
Konjac Ceramide

Konjac Ceramide is prepared from the tubers of the Konjac plant. Ceramides are helpful in preserving the skin moisture. Supplementation of ceramide helps the skin to retain moisture and prevents it from drying, cracking, and being attacked by external agents like dust, pollutants, and bacteria

Konjac Ceramide

Ceramide protects the moisture of the stratum corneum

The skin covers the entire body and has a number of functions, including protection from external stimuli, homeostasis of the internal environment and the sensory perception of pain and temperature. The skin is made up of three layers: the epidermis, the dermis and the subcutaneous tissue.
A well-balanced skin is able to repel external irritants and prevent the evaporation of moisture from the body. Poorly conditioned skin is unable to repel external irritants, allowing them to penetrate deep into the skin, causing irritation, itching and dryness as moisture evaporates from the inside.
The key to the skin’s barrier function is intercellular lipids, whose main component is ceramide.

What is Konjac Ceramide

7 to 15 times of ceramide compared to other plant ingredients

Konjac ceramide is extracted from Konjac tuber, which contains 7 to 15 times more ceramide than other plant ingredients.

Powerful effect with a small amount of intake

The cost of supplement production can be lowered because only a small amount of dosage is recommeneded to achieve the desired effect.

Upcycle (Sustainable Ceramide)

Ceramide is extracted from the byproduct of Konjac tuber that is discarded after it is processed into konjak plates, making it an upcycled (sustainable) and value added product.

Health Benefit Evidence

The sphingoid bases contained in konjac ceramide activate genes that synthesize ceramide and promote ceramide production in the epidermis of the skin. Konjac ceramide contains sphingoid bases that are highly active in promoting ceramide production. In addition, the spingoid bases and their metabolites contained in konjac ceramide are the highest absorbed into the body among our tests.
