Sharp-PS® for Beauty Sharp-PS® for Beauty Phosphatidylserine Phosphatidylserine (PS) is backed by more than 50 clinical studies, for multiple indication, as well as by a significant volume of pre-clinical evidence demonstrating the safety profile and likely mechanism of action. Ingredients: Phosphatidylserine Health Benefits: Beauty ADVANTAGES Advantages of PS for Beauty Supports skin health Wrinkle reduction Improves skin moisture levels A NATURAL NUTRIENT FOR BODY AND MIND PS is a thoroughly researched ingredient that demonstrates benefits supporting both body and brain. Derived from soy and sunflower, Sharp-PS® has been clinically-tested to improve cognitive performance in students¹, attention and behavior in children,² in addition to helping to minimize feelings of stress for those who excite easily,³ while supporting overall skin health.⁴ We also have a sunflower derived version called Sharp-PS® Green. PHOSPHATIDYLSERINE (PS) SKIN CLINICAL TRIAL Learn more about the phosphatidylserine (PS) clinical trial and endpoints: Study Aim The effect of orally consumed phosphatidylserine (PS) from soy on skin moisture content and wrinkles. Study Design Double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Study Method 70 healthy Korean female volunteers, 40 -60 years, with wrinkles, divided into two groups: • PS (300mg/day, split between 2 capsules) • Placebo Assessments conducted at baseline, 6 and 12 weeks. Endpoints • Skin wrinkles assessed by dermatologist’s visual evaluation and 3D skin surface replica analysis (Skin-Visiometer SV 600). • Skin moisture assessed by Corneometer® CM825. PHOSPHATIDYLSERINE (PS) CLINICAL TRIAL RESULTS Wrinkles and Moisture Improved at 12 Weeks Compared to placebo, 12 weeks PS supplementation resulted in: Reduced wrinkles: Reduced photodamage scores, P=0.001 Reduced 3D skin roughness values, P<0.055 Improved skin moisture values, P<0.055. Changes in the global photodamage score in placebo and PS-supplemented group in clinical study Week Placebo D PS-supplemented D P-value 0 3.47 ± 1.02 3.290 ± 1.04 6 3.44 ± 0.95 -0.03 ± 0.18 3.19 ± 1.14 -0.10 ± 0.30 0.083 12 3.44 ± 0.98 -0.03 ± 0.18 2.97 ± 1.14 -0.32 ± 0.48 0.001 References: 1.
