Our Ingredients
1. Fish Scale:
Fish scales are a rich source of collagen, particularly type I collagen, which is the most abundant type found in the human body. Collagen from fish is known for its high bioavailability, meaning it’s easily absorbed and utilized by the body. It supports skin elasticity, hydration, and overall skin health. Additionally, it can strengthen hair, nails, and bones, promoting a youthful appearance and strong structural integrity.
We use fish scales from deep-sea fish, which are harvested sustainably. The meat from these fish is distributed to both local markets and for export.
2. Lemongrass:
Lemongrass is a herb known for its refreshing citrus aroma and taste. It has antioxidant properties, which help in combating free radicals in the body, thereby protecting collagen integrity. It also has potential anti-inflammatory benefits, which can aid in maintaining healthy skin. Lemongrass is known for its purifying properties and can help cleanse the body, promoting overall wellbeing.
3. Pandan Leaves:
Pandan leaves are often used in Southeast Asian cuisine for their aromatic properties. They contain antioxidants like carotenoids, which help protect and repair damaged cells, thereby supporting skin health. Pandan also has anti-inflammatory properties and is believed to have a soothing effect, which may contribute to overall skin and body wellness.
4. Dried Goji Berries:
Goji berries are a powerhouse of nutrients, often referred to as a superfood. They are rich in antioxidants, particularly vitamin C, which is crucial for collagen synthesis. Consuming goji berries can help reduce signs of aging and support the skin’s natural collagen production. They also boost immune function and help maintain eye health.
5. Dried Longan:
Dried longan is valued in traditional Chinese medicine for its calming properties and benefits in supporting heart health. It's packed with vitamin C, which aids collagen production and promotes clear, healthy skin. Additionally, it is believed to improve sleep quality and boost energy levels, contributing to overall wellness.
6. Red Dates:
Red dates, or jujubes, are another staple in traditional medicine, known for their rich nutritional profile including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They are believed to enhance skin health by improving circulation and promoting a rosy, youthful complexion. The antioxidants present in red dates help in maintaining the integrity of collagen, supporting firm and supple skin.
7. Honey Rock Sugar (Sugar Option only):
Honey rock sugar is a natural sweetener that adds a mild sweetness to products without overwhelming them. Honey has natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and the inclusion of honey rock sugar can provide a touch of rich flavor while offering soothing effects. It maintains energy levels and can provide a quick source of fuel for the body.
