Viablife Biotech Hydroxytyrosol

Hydroxytyrosol is a powerful antioxidant that has been part of the diet of populations from the Mediterranean Basin for millennia. In recent years, the traditional Mediterranean diet has received an increasing amount of attention for its protective effects against heart disease, certain cancers, skin ailments and a good number of today’s stress and aging related health problems. That protective function comes in large part from the antioxidant polyphenols at the basis of this kind of diet.

Features & Benefits

Other Health Benefits of Hydroxytyrosol
  • Prevention of neuro-degeneration diseases. Several studies suggest that reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in the etiology of a number of degenerative diseases such as cardiovascular, diabetes, cancer or Alzheimer’s.
  • Protection against ARMD (age-related macular degeneration). This is a disease related to age and other harmful effects such as smoking, Hydroxytyrosol properties such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and protection of the pigment epithelium, minimize the appearance and development of this disease.
  • Prevention of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The cardioprotective capacity of Hydroxytyrosol is endorsed by the EFSA with a health claim for its inhibitory activity on the oxidation of LDL lipoproteins, which leads to diseases such as atherosclerosis.
  • Anti-inflammatory. Hydroxytyrosol has been shown to inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory compounds caused by human leukocytes such as leukotrienes.
Why choose Viablife Hydroxytyrosol
  • Viablife is currently now the only manufacturer in China who can provide commercial scale >99% purity Hydroxytyrosol using it’s leading Biosynthesis and Fermentation technology.
  • Compared to plant-extracted Hydroxytyrosol, Viablife’s Hydroxytyrosol has no pesticide/ fertilizer residue and has very light color and little odor which is perfect for the application in cosmetic products.
  • Hydroxytyrosol is a phytochemical belonging to the family of polyphenols and with the highest concentration of in olive and therefore it is the main antioxidant in olive.
Anti Bacteria

Hydroxytyrosol has potent antimicrobial properties against different types of bacteria.

Protection of UV radiation
  • Hydroxytyrosol prevents the damage that UV radiation causes in melanoma cells when exposed to harmful UV radiation. This is because this molecule reduces significantly the breakdown of DNA strands caused by UVB radiation as inhibits the proliferation of reactive species caused by the incident radiation.
  • Recovery after sunbum and Skin Protection Hydroxytyrosol can effectively improve skin condition and keep skin moisturized for a long tme.
  • Study has been shown that hydroxytyrosol has anti- aging function such as anti-wrinkle.
  • Hydroxytyrosol can restore skin damage and help regeneration of new skin
