Ceramide has been known to do wonders for
hair, and now researchers are finding out more about the tremendous
benefits of ceramides in the improvement of skin health and
function as well! The skin consists of a few layers of tissue, one
of which is the stratum corneum – this is the layer of skin where
intercellular lipids are present and play an important role in
water retention to keep skin moist and hydrated. Ceramides are
among the main component of this intercellular lipid layer and are
responsible for moisturizing the skin. With the help of ceramides,
the skin forms a barrier that protects it from exogenous factors
and prevents water loss. But, in conditions like atopic dermatitis,
there is dryness of the skin due to water loss accompanied by
intense itching.**
Until recently, ceramides have been popularly used in topical
creams and lotions for treating dry skin conditions, but it appears
topical application’s effect is temporary. Therefore, many
researchers conducted studies for dry skin conditions on orally
taken ceramide in the form of liquid or tablet, and have seen
positive results from it.** Studies show that amounts of 1mg to 2mg
of ceramide supplementation per day is enough to make a noticeable
improvement in skin health and function, especially in relation to
retaining moisture. DEVA Ceramide Skin Support contains 1mg of
ceramide from sweet potato extract per tablet, which is an amount
in line with clinical studies.**
