INGREDIENTS: TREMELLA (1000mg per serving) Tremella is the star product in Korean skincare products due to its anti-aging properties and it has been used in traditional Chinese medicine as a strong yin tonic, believing it to provide support for the lungs, stomach, brain, heart and immune system. It’s highly nutritious, loaded with antioxidants and moisturising. In addition, it is said to have an anti-inflammatory effect and promoting collagen production. Additionally, the high amounts of vitamin D in tremella play a role in its skin-boosting benefits as vitamin D is essential for skin cell growth as well as repairing and preventing premature skin aging. Tremella mushrooms and their unique polysaccharide compounds have the highest water-retaining properties in fact the water holding capacity of a tremella mushroom is close to 500 times its weight. This helps keeping your skin nourished and hydrated, helping to reduce wrinkles and fine lines. Some studies have shown that tremella even acts very similar to hyaluronic acid by pulling moisture to the skin. It might be even more beneficial than hyaluronic acid in helping moisturise the skin. It has been suggested that since the hydrating molecules of tremella are smaller than those of hyaluronic acid, they are able to penetrate the skin faster and more effectively. This results in improved texture and elasticity of your skin.  RAW CRIOLLO CACAO POWDER Criollo is a very rare and precious variety of cacao. It is the cacao of the Mayas and the Aztecs and now sought after by chocolatiers and connoisseurs for its smoothness and classic "chocolatey" notes. Cacao in its raw form is packed with essential vitamins and minerals and it is extremely high in antioxidants, which protects your cells from oxidation and aging. As a potent anti-inflammatory, it soothes blemishes and redness, improving the skin's complexion. Plus it is said to improve one's mood, depression, reduce inflammation, improve blood flow, lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart attacks or strokes. MCT POWDER MCT is not only irresistibly creamy, but also an excellent source of energy and said to promote weight loss. MCTs can also be converted into ketones, which are produced from the breakdown of fat when carbohydrate intake is low. Also, it has been shown to keep you full longer, helps to use fat as a source of energy while its fatty acids fight yeast and bacterial growth and it is said to  your gut environment. Last, MCT oil may improve brain function, which could have benefits for people with epilepsy, Alzheimer’s disease, and autism. COCONUT MILK POWDER, STEVIA Coconut milk powder adds to this cacaos creaminess but also contains antioxidants and electrolytes. It has anti-inflammatory properties and is said to promote healthy hair and skin as well as strengthens the immune system. Stevia is a calorie free natural adding a subtle sweetness without raising blood sugar levels.
