Progressive improvement over 60 days while placebo remained essentially unchanged
Objective
Evaluated an oral wheat polar lipid extract containing glucosylceramides on skin moisturization, smoothness, and wrinkledness over 60 days.
Study Design
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in 60 women.
Main Findings
Instrument-measured wrinkledness decreased from 35.66 at baseline to 28.87 at day 60 in the active group, with significant active-versus-placebo differences at follow-ups (p < 0.001). The study used a wheat polar lipid extract providing 1.7 mg glucosylceramides plus 11.5 mg DGDG daily; best skin+ provides 30 mg Ceramosides™ wheat lipid complex. Ingredient-level research; individual results may vary.
