Skincare Benefits of Sulforaphane: Lorenol's main ingredient.

"Sulforaphane is one of the best chemoprotective nutrients that prevent the formation of free radicals and the growth of tumors."

Sulforaphane is the chemical substance that is responsible for protection from harmful radiation. Scientific studies show that broccoli extract (sulforaphane) is effective for three days after being applied, and even if it no longer remains on the skin.

A team of Johns Hopkins Scientists reports in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that humans can be protected against the damaging effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, the most abundant cancer-causing agent in our environment, by topical application of an extract of broccoli sprouts. The results in human volunteers, backed by parallel evidence obtained in mice, show that the degree of skin redness (erythema) caused by UV rays, which is an accurate index of the inflammation and cell damage caused by UV radiation, is markedly reduced in extract-treated skin.

Unlike sunscreens, it does not absorb UV light and prevent its entry into the skin. Rather, the extract works inside cells by boosting the production of a network of protective enzymes that defend cells against many aspects of UV damage. Consequently, the effects are long-lasting; the protection lasts for several days, even after the extract is no longer present on or in the skin.

Studies Suggest Sulforaphane Helps Protect Against Skin Cancer.

Research on glucoraphanin, which is converted to sulforaphane in the body, showed that topical broccoli-based ointments may inhibit the growth of cancer-causing proteins while activating = chemo-protective genes.

Broccoli Seed Oil Calms Inflammation, Protects, and Keeps Skin Looking Young

Unique because of its powerful antioxidants and its unique combination of essential fatty acids. Light, non-greasy, and easily absorbed.

Broccoli Extracts Are Absorbed By Skin Cells

Although broccoli extracts DO NOT act as a sunscreen, the extracts build up a matrix of protective enzymes that defend skin cells against the damage from UV radiation.

Lorenol Products Are Broccoli (Sulforaphane) Based

Lorenol® products address inflammatory issues by incorporating antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredients, which interrupt the “signaling cascade” of damaging inflammatory mediators such as:

• TNFa  (Responsible for Psoriasis/Autoimmune Diseases)

• IL-1  (Responsible for Aging/Skin Damage)

• PGE -2  (Responsible for Poor Wound Healing/Cancer)

• IL-8  (Responsible for Interrupting Collagen Growth)

Sulforaphane: The Key Ingredient

Lorenol® topical therapeutic products effectively improve most inflammatory skin issues and skin inflammation that result from laser and medical procedures, as well as widely known dermatological skin disorders. Each product contains natural, safe, and effective ingredients for even the most sensitive skin. Each formula has been researched and clinically tested to ensure patients receive quality ingredients with recognized results.
