Innovation - What is Circadia and how the anti-aging process works.

"While scientists have viewed aging as a natural process there are some who see aging as a manifestation of environmental stress, a disease related to oxygen stress. Considering that we have to suffer many trillions of oxidative hits on our cells every day, it is no wonder that we slowly burn out under this load." Peter T. Pugliese, M.D.
Living organisms coordinate their biological and physical activities within the earth's 24-hour cycle. Referred to as Circadian Rhythms, these cycles are caused by the earth's rotation around the sun. Our own biological clock is responsible for all cellular activities including cellular regeneration, repair, breaking down old cellular components, eliminating waste and re-growth.

The skin is at maximum moisture level at noon. The greatest water loss occurs between 10.00 pm and midnight. During the day the skin constantly adjusts to activities and environmental changes, At night, between the hours of 9 - 11, the body's repair system is stimulated to produce collagen and elastin, which are essential for healthy, youthful skin. Moreover, research indicates that the skin's greatest absorption factor coincides with this activity. Circadia by Dr, Pugliese formulas are specifically designed to take advantage of these nocturnal repair mechanisms, working with the body to repair and help remove the signs of aging.

During this repair time, the body also produces the enzymes collagenase and elastase. As we age, these enzymes become overactive, and may destroy the supportive tissue of the skin. Original research that documented the effective inhibition of collagenase and elastase was done in the laboratories of Dr. Pugliese. To give your skin that youthful glow, Circadia by Dr, Pugliese skin care products contain ingredients which effectively inhibit these damaging enzymes.

New research has discovered that anything causing inflammation results in free radical activity and further destruction of skin cells. This includes overexposure to strong sunrays, stress, illness, environmental conditions, or even changes inside and outside of the body. This fact confirms that it is vital that skin be protected both externally and internally. Our carefully designed skin care products can help support the reduction of a sudden immune response from external factors and reduce the effects of oxidative stress.

Conclusively, the Circadian Rhythm is essential to life and proper skin function. Any changes from this routine may cause the skin to become dehydrated and age prematurely, resulting in alterations in elasticity and sk8in tone. As such, each Circadia product is formulated to work in harmony with day and night cycles, giving vita nourishment and factors that help inhibit premature cell destruction. This concept is what makes Circadia products unique and exceptional in performance.
