MEG 21‘s founders were working hard to discover technologies to alleviate the suffering of diabetic patients living with painful complications and side effects such as kidney disease and blindness. During the course of this medical research, the scientists learned that A.G.E.s — the inflammatory proteins that cause diabetic side effects — are the same proteins that lead to fine lines, wrinkles and dryness in aging skin.
Dr. Tobia continued to advance and perfect the development of MEG 21 with Supplamine products while performing critical diabetes research at MEG 21‘s sister company, Dynamis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Research on human skin cells led to the discovery that Supplamine can inhibit inflammation.
This breakthrough in anti-aging skin care is also helping Dynamis develop a drug to inhibit the inflammation related to diabetic kidney disease and blindness. With the expansion and success of MEG 21 products comes a commitment from the founders to donate a percentage of sales back to Fox Chase Cancer Center, where this discovery originated.
While conducting the laboratory research on diabetic complications, our scientists learned that excess sugar and carbohydrates in our diets damage the very proteins that keep our skin young and healthy. These sugars bind to the elastin and collagen that make skin taut and resilient. The result is crippled proteins and stiff, brittle skin. This process is called glycation, and glycation is also responsible for increased levels of oxidative stress, free radicals and inflammation. MEG 21‘s Supplamine counteracts the glycation process, inhibiting the sugars that damage skin from the inside out.
The scientist-founders of MEG 21 discovered Supplamine at a major research laboratory. Supplamine is a novel combination of two naturally occurring aminos. The first is arginine, an amino acid that is vital for healthy collagen and elastin, the building blocks of healthy, youthful-looking skin. The second is an amino sugar, n-methyl glucamine, which prevents the formation of dangerous proteins that can damage and inflame your skin. Each amino acid is encapsulated in nature-derived lipids (liposomes) identical to those found in human skin. As a result, Supplamine works from inside your skin, healing from within and delivering time-released soothing, tightening and visible results. There is no irritation, peeling or cell death – just relief from everyday skin stressors. Six clinical trials have shown that MEG 21 products with Supplamine deliver results in just 28 days. These include immediate relief of redness, the gradual reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, smoother skin, and better skin tone and firmness.
Supplamine is MEG 21‘s key in the fight against aging. Our patented anti-aging ingredient is “best in class” in reversing the signs of aging. Supplamine is a combination of two ingredients. The first is an amino acid that is vital for healthy collagen and elastin, the building blocks of healthy, youthful-looking skin. The second is an amino sugar that prevents the formation of dangerous glycated proteins, which can damage and inflame your skin.
MEG 21 with Supplamine is scientifically proven to reverse and repair the signs of aging while delivering younger, healthier-looking skin in just four weeks. These include immediate relief of redness, the gradual reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, smoother skin, better skin tone and firmness.
MEG 21 is the trusted industry leader in the development of gentle and effective anti-aging skin care products. Our innovative process combines aesthetics and science for healthy, beautiful skin that begins at the cellular level. With our commitment and passion for excellence, we continue to exceed expectations in anti-aging skin care.
