Hydrolyzed Eruca Sativa Leaf contains deglycosylated isothiocyanates which stimulate glutathione production by dermal cells. Glutathione is a biologically active tripeptide that is involved in defensive, recovery, and tissue-building processes in the body and the skin.
The high levels of bioavailable isothiocyanates, released in water, are able to increase the content of glutathione in keratinocytes by up to 50%, drastically improving the antioxidant capacity of cell cytosol.
Hydrolyzed Eruca Sativa Leaf naturally boosts the inner defenses of the skin, and in vivo tests have shown that it is able to reduce an induced irritation (-20%), acting as an effective lenitive ingredient.
