Description

FSS BIO-CHELATE ZINC PF

Outer beauty reflects inner health. Proper nutrition is the key to promoting and maintaining healthy skin, scalp, and hair; therefore, priming the skin and hair with adequate minerals is an excellent means to nourish and repair. FSS Bio- Chelate Zinc PF consists of Saccharomyces/zinc ferment, a unique ingredient created using the power of fermentation and elemental synergy. Through fermentation, this mineral undergoes a transformation into a bioactive material that our skin, scalp, and hair can easily recognize. 

Zinc is a metal known to participate in the control of genetic information transfer and protein biosynthesis, affects the proper structure of the skin and hair, has bactericidal activity, accelerates wound healing, and increases resistance to infection.1 This element also has an effect on skin regeneration and can affect collagen metabolism.1 These functional properties have made zinc a popular ingredient in creams, masks, powders, ointments, and pastes known for their anti-inflammatory, astringent, and anti-acne benefits.1 Zinc can help cleanse excess sebum, restore the skin’s natural pH, tighten enlarged pores, and soothe visible irritation for a clearer, more balanced complexion.1 In addition, research has mentioned that the main active component of Saccharomyces/zinc ferment is the complex of zinc with amino acids and peptides, which improves the bioavailability of zinc on the skin.2

Additionally, zinc offers antioxidant properties as it can help fight free radicals responsible for oxidative alteration in cells or tissues.3 It is also a well-known component in sunscreen products in the form of zinc oxide.3 This heavy metal may aid in the treatment of skin-related conditions such as acne, hyperpigmentation, and wrinkles.3 

FSS Bio-Chelate Zinc PF may be used to capitalize on the benefits associated with zinc and silicone in a variety of beauty applications. Through fermentation, the manufacturer can enhance the bioavailability of this mineral to encourage increased affinity with skin and hair.
