Uses | The therapeutic value associated with royal jelly in skin care products includes favoring the regeneration of dermal tissue, stimulating cell metabolism, normalizing sebum secretion, providing photoprotection, moisturizing, improving the skin’s look and feel, and acting as an anti-septic and an anti-inflammatory. These characteristics are attributed to royal jelly’s complex composition, which includes a mixture of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, water, growth factors, and various trace elements. It has a high amino acid content (including aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, and lysine), a high vitamin content (particularly the B family, but also A, C, and D), and is also made up of such minerals as potassium, calcium, and iron. Manufacturers cite royal jelly as particularly appropriate for use in anti-aging products, as well as those for oily skin. |
