The plant raw material market is growing, who is the most explosive?

1.Polysaccharide

Polysaccharides have the effects of moisturizing, delaying aging, anti-oxidation, whitening and promoting skin microcirculation. Fruit polysaccharides are a kind of skin care substances with great application potential, such as apple, pineapple, peach, apricot, red dates and alfalfa. Containing a large amount of pectin polysaccharides, these polysaccharides are well locked in moisture due to their large and complex cellular molecular structure. As an aqueous compound, it can also replace synthetic materials such as carboxymethyl cellulose and polymer glue.
 
In addition to fruit polysaccharides, plant-derived polysaccharides are also innovative in skin care products, such as fucoidan, tremella polysaccharides, and gems. Fucoidan polysaccharide is a water-soluble polysaccharide material composed of fucose containing sulfuric acid group, which has the functions of hydrating and water-locking, and has obvious effects in inhibiting bacteria. In addition, experiments conducted by researchers at Jiangnan University in China found that fucoidan can be used as an excellent natural moisturizer in skin care products.

But the benefits of topical use of the CBD are also increasing, such as reducing acne inflammation and treating other inflammatory skin conditions such as psoriasis.
 
Future Market Insights market data shows that the sales revenue of CBD skin care products is expected to exceed 645 million US dollars in 2019.

There is an interaction between the insulin response and skin aging. When the body’s ability to release insulin after the blood sugar has soared, the level of sugar in the body’s circulation is still high. As the sugar content increases during glycosylation, the protein binds to the sugar, producing AGEs that destroy collagen and elastin1.
 
The Indian Gina tree is a large tree grown in India and Sri Lanka. The key ingredient is Pterocarpus sinensis, which is chemically similar to resveratrol but has significant biological activity in humans. Studies have shown that this material effectively controls blood sugar levels 2 by inducing insulin release from pancreatic cells, which means fewer factors that promote age-growth AGEs.
 
Pterostilbene is also a super antioxidant that enhances the activity of various antioxidant enzymes in the skin and enhances the skin’s ability to defend against free radicals. It not only can alleviate the oxidative damage induced by external sun exposure, but also inhibit the process of free radical-induced cellular oxidation in the body.
