HUM Nutrition, a beauty vitamin and supplement company, has launched Skin Heroes, a pre- and probiotic formula that specifically targets the gut-skin axis, formulated for acne-prone (non-cystic) and dry skin.
HUM Nutrition scientists have identified a proprietary combination of prebiotics and a diversified combination of probiotic strains that specifically target the gut-skin axis by balancing and nurturing the body's microbiome. The formula features konjac root, a prebiotic that feeds the body's good bacteria; along with nine strains of probiotic bacteria totaling 40 billion colony forming units (CFUs). Skin Heroes is vegan, vegetarian, non-GMO, gluten-free, and sustainably sourced.
In addition, HUM recently concluded an eight-week dermatologist supervised pilot study in which the Skin Heroes formula has shown to visibly reduce breakouts, decrease redness, improve skin hydration, and balance digestion. To demonstrate the benefits of Skin Heroes, the company commissioned a consumer trial with 27 participants (23 completed) that was supervised by a dermatologist and a Registered Dietitian. At the end of the eight-week trial, 88% of participants reported a decrease in the severity of their breakouts and 81% reported more balanced digestion. Furthermore, skin hydration improved.
