Alasta™ is an immune-stimulatory ingredient derived from Aloe Vera that stimulates macrophage activation, a process important for wound healing and collagen production. Though its precise pathway has not been charted, clinical testing has demonstrated a supportive relationship between the use of Alasta™ and the ability to help reduce overall inflammation in the body to help sustain the quality and appearance of youth. Less inflammation results in less oxidative stress, fewer free radical reactions, and less collagen cross-linking, resulting in increased skin elasticity and firmness.
The compounds that make up Alasta™ were discovered inside the rind of the Aloe plant by scientists at The National Center for Natural Products Research (NCNPR) at the University of Mississippi. Alasta™ is a sustainable and renewable technology. No part of the plant is wasted.
Alasta is used exclusively as the active ingredient in the Immune Performance product line of Sustainable Youth Technologies.
