Cherry Blossom, a powerful Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory

Researchers have discovered that cherry blossom benefits health largely because it contains antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In one study, cherry blossom extract from Prunus lannesiana revealed its function on advanced glycation-end products (AGE). AGEs (a befitting acronym) are toxins that promote aging, inflammation and oxidative stress that lead to other maladies. 

With the research studies suggesting cherry blossom benefits the health by reducing inflammation, and oxidative damage that leads to aging, it’s no wonder that cherry blossom extract is one of my favorite on our skin care products. The benefits of this charming blossom make it a wonder-flower — one that is beautiful on the outside and inside.
