Supplement company Advanced Nutrition Programme invited Aesthetics to the launch of its Skin Integrate 28 biome powder in London.
The company hosted press and practitioners on June 24 to discuss the launch of the new biome powder first hand. The breakfast panel featured aesthetic practitioner and GP Dr Christine Hall, medical director at Advanced Nutrition Programme Dr Gaby Prinsloo and Lorraine Perretta, head of nutrition at Advanced Nutrition Programme.
This powder incorporates prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics, elements that aim to enhance the gut-skin axis. The company reports that the product is backed by 48 clinical studies and is associated with improvements in skin hydration, resilience and brightness. Ingredients include plant fibres, amino acids and vitamin C. The company recommends a heaped teaspoon a day mixed in water, smoothies or yogurt.
Dr Prinsloo shared on the panel, “Gut microbiome research is rapidly increasing within the wellness sector, as it’s clear that gut health impacts skin health. With our modern-day lifestyles, factoring in stress, lack of sleep and poor diets, a biome-supporting powder plays a vital role in maintaining a healthy gut microbiome.”
