CHLORELLA MINUTISSIMA/SODIUM GLUTAMATE FERMENT EXTRACT FILTRATE.

Valuable / ANTIOXIDANT, HUMECTANT, SKIN CONDITIONING, SKIN CONDITIONING - EMOLLIENT

A cutting-edge biotechnological ferment that bridges the gap between marine algae nutrients and neurotransmitter science to optimize cellular longevity. This nutrient-dense filtrate is specifically engineered to replenish mitochondrial energy while shielding the skin's structural matrix from environmental degradation.

Summary

Antioxidant Humectant Skin Conditioning Mitochondrial Support Barrier Repair

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient functions as a cellular bio-optimizer by delivering high concentrations of Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and amino acids to the skin. It protects mitochondrial efficiency and supports NAD+ precursors to maintain cellular energy levels, while simultaneously inhibiting matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) that break down collagen and reinforcing the Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) for enhanced barrier integrity.

Key findings

  1. 01 Clinical evaluation of Chlorella-derived ferments demonstrated significant improvements in dermal hydration and barrier resilience at 1-2% concentrations.
  2. 02 In-vitro analysis confirmed that the fermentation process with Sodium Glutamate maximizes GABA levels, providing a soothing effect and protecting mitochondrial health against oxidative stress.

Because it is a complex ferment with high-performance claims, many products include it at 'label-claim' levels (below 1%) to capitalize on the name. At Moumoujus, we consider levels below 1.0% to be insufficient for delivering the documented mitochondrial and antioxidant benefits.
