Anti-inflammatory and anti-pimple

Acne, also known as acne, is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that is closely related to excessive sebum secretion, blockage of sebaceous ducts, bacterial infection and inflammatory reaction. Chinese medicine believes that Amaranthus has the ability to clear heat and detoxify the body, reduce swelling and relieve itching. Amaranthus also contains ellagic acid, organic acids, flavonoids and other components that can help sterilize and sedate the skin, delay the redness and swelling, and have a therapeutic effect on pimples that are red and pus-filled from bacterial infections.

Delays aging

The vitamin A and vitamin E are strong oxidants that can help eliminate pigmentation, resist free radicals and delay skin aging. The organic acids contained in it can help to improve the blood circulation of the face and improve the oxygen supply to the cells, making the facial skin moist and soft.

Darken gray hair

Copper ions are an important part of tyrosinase enzyme. The lack of copper ions can lead to a decrease in melanin production, resulting in an increase in gray hair, while amaranth is rich in copper ions, which can replenish the body's copper ions and help increase the density of black cells in the epidermis and the activity of related enzymes, helping to turn gray hair black.
