Melatonin is a key ingredient in Youth Corridor Antioxidant Boost ($125), by Dr. Gerald Imber. To most people it is simply a drug to help fight jet lag. It’s actually an important, naturally occurring compound found in all cells. Its effect on the body rhythms is due to potent antioxidant activity - among the most potent in the body. Vitamin C and vitamin E are antioxidants as well, but not as ubiquitous and not nearly as powerful as MELATONIN.


When Vitamin C penetrates the skin it stimulates collagen synthesis and reverses aging. The problem is getting the vitamin C into the skin. It is unstable and penetrates poorly. When vitamin E is added, the combination shows more antioxidant activity, probably because of better penetration and stability in combination. But when tiny amounts of MELATONIN are added to the mix the results are dramatically better, and far more pronounced antioxidant activity is obvious.

MELATONIN is crucial in the life of cells, and though its precise method of action in combination with vitamins C and E is unknown, the result is a big step forward in maintaining healthy, youthful skin and reversing sun damage.
