Why Sunlight Ages Your Skin
Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet B (UVB) rays damages skin at the cellular level. It triggers oxidative stress, breaks down collagen, depletes moisture, and accelerates wrinkle formation.
Fortunately, nature offers powerful compounds to counteract this damage—and Astragalus extract is one of the most promising.
Study Objective: Can Astragalus Protect the Skin?
A groundbreaking study explored how Astragalus extract might defend skin cells from UVB-induced aging and oxidative stress. Researchers focused on:
⚬ Human Dermal Fibroblasts (HDF) – responsible for collagen production
⚬ HaCaT Keratinocytes – support the skin’s outer layer and hydration
Key Findings of the Study
(1) Reduced Oxidative Stress & Collagen Breakdown
⚬ Astragalus significantly lowered MMP-1, MMP-9, and MMP-13—enzymes that degrade collagen
⚬ It reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS), the free radicals responsible for cellular damage
(2) Boosted Collagen Production
⚬ Increased levels of Collagen I, which supports skin structure and elasticity
(3) Improved Cellular Resilience
⚬ Enhanced viability of cells exposed to oxidative stress
⚬ Maintained collagen levels under hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) stress
(4) Enhanced Skin Hydration
⚬ Increased hyaluronic acid synthesis
⚬ Elevated key hydration markers: filaggrin and serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT)
Why This Matters for Aging & Skin Health
Skin aging isn’t just cosmetic—it’s a reflection of deeper cellular stress. This study shows Astragalus can:
⚬ Protect structural proteins like collagen
⚬ Reduce oxidative stress that accelerates aging
⚬ Improve moisture retention, crucial for smooth, youthful skin
Together, these benefits contribute to a healthier, more resilient complexion.
