Efficacy of a Dietary Supplement on Parameters of Skin Aging in Men and Women

Natals, Inc. dba Ritual63 enrolled

Overview

As the body ages, the skin experiences natural changes in structure and composition. These changes may manifest visibly as increased skin dryness, wrinkling, and a loss of firmness/elasticity. In this double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, the investigators will recruit healthy men and women with mild to moderate signs of skin aging and randomly assign them to either receive a HyaCera™ or placebo for 12 weeks. The investigators will perform a series of objective and subjective measurements to assess changes in skin condition. The investigators hypothesize that consumption of HyaCera™ leads to improvements in the general condition of the skin including skin hydration, crow's feet wrinkling, and other skin aging parameters.
