The latest development from the Lessonia laboratories in France is LycoMega®, a powerful active ingredient boasting anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and photo-protection benefits. The plant actives of LycoMega® are extracted from cold-pressed cranberry seed (rich in omega 3) and tomato seed (rich in Lycopene). The Lycopene content is standardized to 80ppm.
The LycoMega® antioxidant activity was tested and proven to have an ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value higher than spinach or red grapes. Lycopene, the most powerful carotenoid quencher of singlet oxygen is 100 times more efficient in quenching action than Vitamin E.
In addition, LycoMega® has the right balance of omega 6 and omega 3 content. Nearly every biologic function is somehow interconnected with the delicate balance between omega-6 and omega-3.
In cell culture studies, the LycoMega® shows a protective effect towards UVB on cell viability making it an interesting choice for sunscreen applications.
Lessonia, a natural products company, has launched the LycoMega® as a preservative and solvent-free active. For further information, please contact Lessonia’s US partner, BioOrganic Concepts,

The Mangosteen tree, an evergreen that grows in tropical Southeast Asia, produces the powerful “superfruit” Mangosteen. Locals have long-consumed the Mangosteen fruit as a dessert and used it as a source in traditional medicine. Today, the rest of the world is seeing it become a popular ingredient for use in a plethora of nutritional and cosmeceutical applications.
The Mangosteen fruit is rich in iron, fiber, protein, calcium, potassium and Vitamins C, B1, B2 and B6. Perhaps most interesting is its xanthone content. Xanthones are very powerful anti-oxidants and have only recently been discovered (1990’s). Research has shown that these xanthones have several health benefits including anti-inflammatory properties. Not surprisingly, the Mangosteen is being used in skin care to target disorders such as eczema and psoriasis. Several independent labs are now investigating the use of Mangosteen in OTC drugs.
BioNatural® Mangosteen Powder BioNatural® Mangosteen Powder is a fine yellowish brown powder with characteristic odor. It can be used in skin conditioners, lip balms, soaps and shampoos. The typical usage level is 0.5=5%. It is available in 25kg packaging. Download the Product Information sheet |
