THIOTAURINE
INCI: Thiotaurine
What is Thiotaurine?
Thiotaurine is 2-aminoethane thiosulfonate. It is the biological analog of taurine, which is naturally present in the human body. It has many important biological functions, such as anti-oxidation and osmoregulation.
Use & Benefits:
- Signaling Molecule: The body requires signaling molecules to counter changes, such as inflammation. Thiotaurine produces H2S, a gaseous signaling molecule that helps regulate the inflammatory process.
- Protein Expression: Thiotaurine also affects protein expression.
- Antioxidant Properties: It functions as an antioxidant in various cosmetic products.
- Environmental Protection: Our body produces free radicals due to exposure to environmental factors such as radiation, pollution, and other toxic chemicals, which break down collagen and hinder the skin repair process.
- Anti-Aging: Antioxidants scavenge these free radicals and reduce visible signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and infections like acne and dark spots.
- Skin Enhancement: Antioxidants brighten the skin, stimulate collagen production, and make the skin healthier and more youthful.
- Cosmetic Ingredient: Thiotaurine is used in the formulations of skin care products.
