Find out why you should choose OptiMSM® for your next skin health formulation!
Summer time can be a detriment to our skin if proper care is not taken. Ultraviolet rays from the sun and chlorine from swimming pools can have negative effects on the health of your epidermis. UV rays can cause sun damage such as wrinkles, leathery skin and liver spots.
Sunscreen with a decent amount of SPF can help to avoid this, but MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) may help maintain healthy collagen and inhibit hardening of skin tissue.
In other words, sunscreen helps prevent sun burn and the MSM could hydrate, strengthen, and add elasticity to your skin, during and also after summer.

As part of our PlantNutra® range we offer Holy basil as a high quality and traceable signature ingredient, by Verdure Sciences® (the producers of Longvida® and Bacognize®).
Holy basil is often used in adaptogenic solutions targeting wellbeing, promoting calming attributes, alleviating stress, and offering restorative benefits for a balanced mood, emotional wellbeing and mental vitality.
Recent published data suggests that low doses of Holy basil may reduce stress and insomnia, and increase sleep efficiency.

“Potassium-rich diets could reduce the negative effects of salt in the diet”, say European researchers, who link this finding with women, who consume high-salt foods. When taking a deeper dive into the research, the team discovered sex differences in sodium sensitivity suggesting that potassium helps preserve heart health in women more than men.
In a recent study published last June, subjects, both men and women, aged between 40 and 79 years old were asked to complete a questionnaire based on lifestyle habits. They were also asked to provide a urine sample and have their blood pressure measured. Having looked at the potassium intake and blood pressure, re-adjusting for age, sex and sodium intake, the results revealed that in women, potassium intake (grams per day) went up and blood pressure went down. In men there was no association between potassium and blood pressure.

There are key nutrients, such as iodine, that are essential when optimising the brain’s capabilities to enhance memory, learning and focus.
Cognitive function is undoubtedly important throughout life, but there are certain times when ensuring optimum mental performance is vital. Groups such as students, who need peak cognitive abilities to achieve success in their studies are a prime example. With a study of European students finding that nearly 40% of the participants were taking or had previously taken at least one food supplement1, there is a market need for brain boosting supplements targeting this demographic, including PureSea®.
