(Akebia quinata)
A liana from the forests of Asia, the Akebia climbs and winds its stems around large plants to reach light. Luxuriant, it develops generous foliage and is adorned with beautiful clusters of flowers with the smell of chocolate, ranging from purple to wine.
Hot summers prompt fleshy fruit. Their gelatinous pulp with a hint of apple is edible, including by monkeys who feed on it in winter.
The fruits are used in traditional medicine to improve memory and blood circulation.
Excess sugar is a factor in premature ageing. It binds to membrane structure proteins, collagen and elastin, which gradually lose their quality. Skin is less firm, wrinkles appear and tissues sag. Skin is more vulnerable to oxidative attacks.
Our active ingredient derived from akebia inhibits this glycation reaction, thus protecting the skin’s proteins. It also protects cells from oxidative stress. It preserves the extracellular matrix and slows the ageing process.
In addition to this anti-ageing action, Akebia has a rapid hydrating effect on the epidermis.
