Melon-derived Antioxidant Minimizes Skin Damage

Not all antioxidants are alike. Here’s another powerful antioxidant that shows incredible promise for neutralizing skin damage before it manifests as wrinkles: GliSODdin. A brand of orally effective Superoxyde Dismutase (SOD) antioxidant found in melons, GliSODin neutralizes some of the most destructive free radicals while stimulating the body to produce its own natural antioxidants.

Studies show that GliSODin increases the level of UV rays required to burn skin, even in fair skinned subjects. In an open clinical trial, 86% of 150 volunteers with sun-sensitive skin experienced significant protection against sun damage with GliSODin supplementation. The report concluded that GliSODin “prepares” the skin for sun exposure, helping shield skin cells from damaging free radicals created during sun exposure.

Not just any antioxidant will do when it comes to skin protection. Look for GliSODin in supplement form for the greatest benefits – check your local health food store!
