Got a question?

LYMA has been created to be the one ultimate supplement that will work for everyone regardless of gender or life stage. The powerful ingredients in LYMA help you with the benefits you personally need, at the time you need them. No other brand takes this approach of just offering the best possible formulation which is proven to work for everyone.

Yes however if you are on a medical treatment plan we always advise speaking with your practitioner.

We recommend that you take two capsules in the morning with breakfast and two capsules in the evening with dinner. This doesn’t have to be a large meal, a small portion of fruit or some nuts will suffice. Do not exceed the recommended dose and please wait at least 30 minutes before or after caffeine intake, as caffeine can inhibit absorption of nutrients.

When we look good, we feel good. LYMA offers a full spectrum approach to fight ageing from within. It has taken us years to find the most proven, trusted ingredients that offer true benefits in all areas. LYMA is the ultimate supplement, powered by science to deliver optimum wellness. Prepare to feel your best.

The effects of menopause are very diverse and include changes in energy, mood, libido and temperature control. We cannot modify all of these, but the complex of actives in LYMA will help with many of them.

There are numerous benefits for menopausal women taking LYMA. KSM66® Ashwagandha is an adaptogen which is useful in helping the body adapt to the stress it is placed under throughout the menopause. Cynatine®HNS is an outstanding form of keratin which will support hair, skin and nails which are often reported to suffer during menopause. In fact, the clinical trials relating to this ingredient have been carried out on women who are aged between 40 and 71. Your body is susceptible to free radical damage as we age. Extensive studies with curcumin have shown reduction in oxidative stress and inflammation. Once you reach the menopause the reduction of oestrogen puts bone health at risk and It’s imperative to ensure you get enough Vitamins D3 and K2 which help to deliver calcium to the bones. From a cognitive perspective, Cognizin® supports brain function and helps protect against molecular degeneration. affron® is creating a buzz amongst academics and scientists as the first saffron extract on the market to be supported with peer-reviewed clinical evidence to demonstrate positive benefits across mood and sleep quality, both issues faced during the menopause.

The way we look affects the way we feel. LYMA was designed to offer future beauty benefits by assuring that all areas of our body perform optimally, decreasing inflammation and allowing an optimal beauty response in the process. LYMA is a supplement powered by science to deliver optimum results.

LYMA has changed the way the world looks at supplements.

However, the lack of regulation means that the industry is awash with low-quality products that deliver little or no benefit with bold claims and no real evidence to support them.

LYMA is different. We refuse to work with unproven ingredients that offer nothing outside of hope and hype.

LYMA is the first supplement company to use nine of the best, patented ingredients, proven in over 200 peer-reviewed clinical trials to restore ultimate balance and enable you to start feeling your best.

This is the LYMA difference. No other supplement comes close.

Nutraceuticals are those ingredients which have clinical evidence supportive of health. Patented ingredients tend to be nutraceuticals with clinical data to back their use. The difference is everything.

Every ingredient in the LYMA formula is fully certified for sale in the UK and USA. All ingredients are manufactured to a GMP (Good Manufacturing Standard) of the highest level.

Patented ingredients tend to have special qualities worth protecting. Such qualities include protecting a unique technology, the purity of material, bioavailability and the stability of an active. Clinical data is always completed. Generic ingredients tend to be those with average qualities and are unproven. We have full trust in our formula to really deliver results because of the years of research behind them.

Patented ingredients tend to have special qualities worth protecting. Such qualities include protecting a unique technology, the purity of material, bioavailability and the stability of an active. Pre-clinical and clinical data is always thorough and completed. On the other hand, generic ingredients tend to be those with average qualities and are unproven. We have full trust in our formula to really deliver results because of the years of research behind them.

Trust, efficacy and powerful science comes at a cost. At LYMA, no expense has been spared. We want you to feel your absolute best and have taken a no expense spared ethos.

Our global team of scientists took three years to formulate LYMA. Their brief was simple, to create the world’s best supplement. We believe that health is not something to be taken to chance.

Evidence-based ingredients as formulated in LYMA, costs more than 400x than organic.

LYMA’s formula incorporates nine, patented, peer-reviewed ingredients. Each dosed to deliver outstanding results and designed to outperform their organic counterparts.

Our investment, research and the scientific innovation involved in the creation of LYMA’s ingredients comes a cost. But unless we are uncompromising in our quest to offer the best, supplements simply won’t work. LYMA is a complete game changer.

LYMA is proud of the science packed into every capsule, knowing it can change lives, deliver real results and all for the same price as a daily coffee.

The LYMA patented ingredients are sourced from leading pharmaco-nutrition companies, from countries including USA, India, Japan, Norway and France. Our science team is constantly looking at new innovation in the world of nutraceuticals and evaluating and considering new research papers.

The industry wants to sell you a myriad of different supplements to combat areas that LYMA can fulfil with its one formula approach.

We only use actives which have been proven in peer-reviewed clinical and pre-clinical studies. LYMA’s formula has been tested to ensure all the ingredients work together and perform optimally.

LYMA proves there is no need to take multiple supplements to target different areas of the body. Life can be complex enough, which is why we’ve made supplements simple with no compromises.

LYMA was formulated by a team of leading nutritional scientists with over 100 years’ combined experience at the forefront of the pharmaco-nutrition industry. We only consult and work with leading figures in pharmaco-nutrition to assure that anything LYMA delivers is the absolute best.

Levagen®+ is a patented version of PEA (palmitoylethanolamide), sourced from palm kernel oil, and contains no allergenic ingredients. It is particularly bioavailable due to Levagen®+ including LipiSperse ® technology, meaning the body is able to absorb it better than in other forms.

Over the years, LYMA has pursued new developments and ingredients to make sure our status as the ultimate Supplement is something we continue to earn. First we added a physiologically active 600mg daily dose of HydroCurc®, a specialized delivery format of curcumin. Curcumin is the compound in turmeric root that earns such a reputation as a wonder substance, and our patented form of it is the most bioavailable and efficacious on the market: HydroCurc® is a powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant that anti-ages cells and makes for better, overall health.

We then updated our formula to contain an active dose of affron®, which continues to create buzz among academics and scientists as the first saffron extract on the market to be supported with peer-reviewed clinical evidence. Six studies to date have demonstrated positive benefits across mood and sleep quality in healthy adults. Its efficacy has also been demonstrated for use in conjunction with adults who are taking anti-depressants to decrease side effects.

In 2022, LYMA will be releasing its Formula V3, bringing its total ingredient count to ten.

This change has been applied to capsules sold within the EU and is in response to new European Commission legislation. The capsule will retain its iconic copper colour in all other markets.

You should consume a total of four capsules daily, ideally two in the morning and two in the evening. This will ensure you retain optimum levels of all ingredients in your system. However, LYMA can be taken at any time of day that suits your schedule. None of the ingredients contain stimulants that risk keeping you awake. Likewise, none of the ingredients are known to cause drowsiness during the day.

LYMA has been formulated for adults over the age of 18 who are seeking to optimise their health, beauty and wellbeing. It is not suitable for children and should be kept out of their reach.

LYMA should be taken daily. There is no evidence showing a break is beneficial but lots of evidence showing continuous consumption builds the benefits and effects over time.

Scientific studies show that the body starts seeing the difference of LYMA within 24 hours as the ingredients starting engineering the body to perform at its best. In the first month people report stronger nails, thicker hair and more but the real optimisation is hidden within the body. You can read case studies from LYMA members on their experience here

We advise you take the LYMA supplement at least 30 minutes before or after caffeine intake, as caffeine can inhibit the absorption of nutrients. It's also suggested to take LYMA with some food, as it helps your body to absorb LYMA and all of it's ingredients. This doesn't need to be a full meal, a snack is sufficient.

The naturally antibacterial copper vessel is intended to be displayed in your home or office as a daily reminder to take LYMA and acts as an ideal storage environment for the capsules. It is for this reason your initial purchase includes the copper vessel. The cost of your Starter Kit includes your initial LYMA Supply, the copper vessel and gives your LYMA Membership. This gives you access to LYMA Concierge and member pricing for refills and subscriptions.

Copper is a natural antibacterial so ideal to use as a storage vessel for your LYMA capsules.

Each copper vessel is handcrafted by artisans using 100% of the purest grade solid copper. Copper is a naturally antibacterial metal.

The copper colour on the LYMA capsules are colourants that are recognised by EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) as completely safe for consumption.

Adding a subscription is simple. Visit www.lyma.life/go, sign in to your LYMA account and click ‘start’ under ‘my subscriptions’.

Missing a dose isn’t a disaster. If you do miss a dose, don’t double up on your next dose, simply continue taking the recommended dose when you are next due to take. The LYMA copper vessel is designed to be kept on display in your home, which will hopefully act as a reminder to ensure LYMA remains a part of your daily wellness routine. You’ll find your daily balance soon enough.

LYMA can be taken at any time of day that suits your schedule. None of the ingredients contain stimulants that risk keeping you awake. Likewise, none of the ingredients are known to cause drowsiness during the day. We recommend either taking two capsules at the same time each morning with breakfast and in the evening with dinner to ensure you retain optimum levels of all ingredients in your system.

We recommend taking LYMA 30 minutes on either side of caffeine intake. Caffeine is a mild diuretic which can increase the passing of nutrients through the gastrointestinal tract. This could mean less absorption of the ingredients. For best results take LYMA with a glass of water or juice, and at the same time as food to increase absorption.

Yes, LYMA is safe to take whilst taking antibiotics. The ingredients in the LYMA formula provide your body with maximum nourishment to help fight infection and help restore your body to maximum health.

LYMA has been formulated as a total supplement regime, to provide nutrients that cannot be obtained from the diet at the levels that have been shown to convey real health benefits. Unless you have been medically diagnosed as being deficient in a particular vitamin or mineral, there is no need to take anything else. If you have any questions regarding an existing supplement you are taking, please do contact concierge@lyma.life.

Yes absolutely. In fact, our clinically dosed, patented forms of vitamin D3 and K2 work alongside calcium to support the maintenance of healthy bones.

The LYMA ingredients are dosed at active levels, reflected in peer-reviewed clinical studies. Failing to take the effective dosage may decrease your chances of feeling the full benefits of LYMA.

LYMA has been formulated as an optimal daily dose of four capsules.

For ingredients it's useful to look for those which have a wide variety of peer-reviewed papers aligning to a specific benefit. LYMA takes a circular view with all benefits building and supporting the benefits of other benefits delivered by either LYMA ingredients.

Most beauty clinical trials involve topical application of product to the skin. In recent years orally taken nutraceuticals have been successfully shown to provide beauty benefits – coining the phrase ‘beauty from within’.

LYMA’s nutricosmetic ingredients provide proven beauty benefits based on oral consumption in peer-reviewed clinical trials.

If an ingredient isn’t backed by peer-reviewed clinical evidence, then there is a good reason. It hasn’t met the criteria. You’ll often see the words ‘clinically tested’ attached to wellness products. What this actually means is that a company has paid to conduct a private clinical trial. These results cannot be trusted. The industry doesn’t trust these results, and neither should you.On the other hand, peer-reviewed studies, are published and reviewed medical journals. This is the gold standard that the medical profession fully supports. This is why we only use peer-reviewed ingredients. This is transparent evidence-based nutrition, and this is why LYMA is so different to the rest of the supplement industry.

We consider the best way to check efficacy of ingredients is to see if clinical studies have been published in a peer-reviewed journal. This way you can be sure the clinical study has not been doctored in any way and results are genuine. All LYMA’s ingredients have been published in peer-reviewed journals. The study design is also crucial, as is the result. Statistical and clinical significance are important but if the study design is poorly thought out it affects the reliability of the results recorded. The gold standard for clinical studies are RCT’s (randomised control trials). These underpin LYMA’s patented ingredients. The credibility of research can also vary. Studies can be double blind in design, randomised or placebo controlled. These are all factors that improve validity of a trial. You can read our Director of Science Dr Paul Clayton's view on the importance of looking at the research when it comes to supplements HERE.

Peer-reviewed studies are only category of study which have been critically assessed by the peers of the authors. If a study wants to be taken seriously, a credible study is always one that is peer-reviewed, published independently in a credible journal rather than not at all.

This is the gold standard that the medical profession fully supports. This is why we only use peer-reviewed ingredients. This is transparent evidence-based nutrition, and this is why LYMA is so different to the rest of the supplement industry.

LYMA’s patented ingredients have been selected on the premise of outstanding bioavailability, stability and efficacy. Unlike generic ingredients, patented ingredients give consumers assurance they are ingesting the gold standard in supplements with each ingredient backed by a suite of clinical trials and considerable time and financial investment.

LYMA doesn’t require a clinical trial on the final formula because we only use patented (validated) ingredients, each dosed at the same levels as proven in the individual peer-reviewed clinical trials.

Each of the actives in LYMA have been fully validated, and because they’re all doing different things and because the molecules themselves are of different kinds, they don’t interfere with each other, and we conduct rigorous stability tests as part of our manufacturing to confirm this. One doesn’t stop the absorption of the other, because they go to different parts of the body. The whole is the sum of its products. There is no need to test the final LYMA formula because each of their constituent parts the data has been published publicly.

The copper colour used in our LYMA capsule is a colourant that is recognised by EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) and FDA as completely safe for consumption. We understand that some people prefer not to ingest colourants so we created the capsule as a two-piece product so it can b opened easily for the LYMA formula to be dispersed into a smoothie or yoghurt.

LYMA is a food supplement not a drug. Each patented ingredient has been featured in peer-reviewed clinical studies and has undergone an extensive safety record to ensure no toxins are present.

All the patented ingredients featured in LYMA are approved by EFSA, FDA and have been referenced in recognised industry publications. Full transparency is at the core of everything LYMA does.

Whilst we do not offer a money back guarantee we can assure you that all nine ingredients in the formula have been strictly trialled and tested and proven to work. You can find the links to all of the scientific trials on our website HERE

Science progresses, and as it does, we keep up with it. As more validated materials achieve evidence-based status, we review the science and determine whether they make the LYMA grade.

LYMA works for women in all life stages, including being a support through perimenopause, menopause and post menopausal stages.

No. Our formula is the best possible supplement for everyone. Brands which offer different products for men and women, for different health issues or benefits are delivering products based on marketing, we decided to create a supplement which would deliver the best possible results for everyone.

LYMA is not a drug, it’s a superior supplement which does not elicit side effects. We have specifically selected powerful ingredients based on safety and clinically dosed efficacy. Our ingredients do not interact with each other. Get ready to feel your best.

The Oxford Happiness Inventory as it’s known was devised as a broad measure of personal happiness. This was mainly used for in-house use in the Department of Experimental Psychology of the University of Oxford in the late 1980’s. Since this time a more compacted version has been adopted - The Oxford Happiness Questionnaire. We recommend assessing your degree of happiness before the outset of your LYMA experience. Try this at three months into your journey and again at six months to truly appreciate how this product is performing.

Most supplements use poorly characterised and untested ingredients. This is hope-based nutrition. At LYMA we only offer proven, high-quality evidence. LYMA is evidence-based nutrition and this is the future of wellness.

LYMA strives for the highest ethical standards. Our formula is manufactured in the UK in accordance with GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) and all of our ingredients, packaging and product suppliers all adhere to our strict ethical code of conduct. We will never ethically compromise ourselves or our customers.

A capsule’s outer coating acts as a protective mechanism from the acidity in the stomach. Once the capsule disintegrates, you are left with the compressed powder which can be readily absorbed by the intestine, into the circulation.

LYMA contains patented ingredients that go above and beyond to support optimal wellness. LYMA’s ingredients are selected on the premise of bioavailability, stability, purity and innovation. These super ingredients are backed by more research than other supplement on the market and our formula is developed by leading pharmaco-nutrition experts. You can trust us to deliver.

LYMA was created with an ethos at odds with the rest of the supplement world. We wanted to offer customers the very best of what was available taking a gold standard approach to ingredients and efficacy, but we also wanted to provide value. Each one of LYMA’s ingredients is clinically proven in a suite of peer-reviewed clinical studies. To purchase each ingredient in LYMA separately at the same dosage would cost significantly more money and would mean having to take over 20 pills daily if taking the same ingredients separately. Four LYMA pills daily will elicit the same response at a fraction of the cost and with less hassle. Life can be complicated enough, which is why we’ve made supplementation simple. We know that LYMA may be beyond the reach of some people which is why we are completely transparent about our ingredients to allow people to base their own regime on our gold standard approach.

Antioxidants are compounds that inhibit oxidation. They have a role to play in the body, where they regulate the overall redox environment. Antioxidant supplements are still used commercially, but after the failure of many antioxidant trials, the science has moved on. The emphasis is now on chronic inflammation and the supplementation use of anti-inflammatory agents. As to the question if LYMA is a powerful anti-inflammatory? Our hands are tied by the legislation to explain this. We suggest you follow the peer-reviewed references provided in our ingredients’ section so you can make an unbiased view for yourselves.

The ingredients in LYMA have all been clinically trialled with proven efficacy at levels provided within the LYMA supplement. Unfortunately, the industry is plagued with low quality, unproven, synthetic ingredients trading in an unregulated environment that has no recognised industry standard for the products sold.

LYMA is not certified Halal, however all of the ingredients in the LYMA formula are Halal suitable.

Yes, the LYMA formula is suitable for those following a Paleo diet.

Our mission was to create the highest quality, most effective formula possible. To not include Cynatine® HNS, would have compromised LYMA’s beauty results. We are committed to offering the most effective ingredients on the market to help people look and feel their absolute best.

No, LYMA is classed as suitable for vegetarians but not vegans. Creating a vegan formula would have meant we would have to substitute Cynatine® HNS (hydrolysed keratin derived from sheep’s wool) for a vegan alternative and this would have compromised the beauty results of the LYMA formula.

Yes, LYMA’s formula contains ingredients that are suitable for people following a vegetarian diet.

Yes, LYMA is nut free and is produced in a factory that does not handle nuts or nut products.

LYMA is not recommended for those who are breastfeeding. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, we advise to check with your doctor first before taking any food supplements.

LYMA has not been formulated as a pregnancy or breast-feeding supplement, therefore we advise not to take LYMA during these times. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, we recommend following the advice of your doctor or midwife with a specific nutritional programme. If you're taking LYMA you can simply pause your subscription until you're ready to take it again.

Our science team are constantly exploring, reviewing and assessing new clinical studies to ensure LYMA remains at the forefront of wellness.

We do not bulk out our supplement, it is packed with active patented ingredients. However in order to avoid oxidation of ingredients we add a small amount of brown rice flour.

There are no ingredients in the LYMA formula that will change the colour of your urine. Typically, in terms of supplements the only ingredients that will change the colour of your urine are beetroot and Vitamin B2 of which there are no traces of in the LYMA formula.

After swallowing the LYMA capsule, it travels down your digestive tract where it is broken down by enzymes. When it reaches the intestine, the ingredients are able to be fully absorbed.

Chronic inflammatory stress drives non-communicable disease and is increasingly regarded as a central element in the ageing process, hence the term ‘inflammageing’. It is largely driven by lifestyle factors, and among these, diet is the most important. Dysnutrition is the most important cause of early death globally, and the ultra-processed foods that take up an increasing proportion of our diet not only cause chronic inflammation but also obesity, dysbiosis and immunological imbalance. Public health is in decline and we are losing life expectancy. It is not hard to see why, and it is more important than ever, now that science is underpinning the uses and importance of specific food and herbal derivates, to insist on patented, validated and clinically proven nutrients. The ingredients in LYMA have multiple proven actions and have been combined with great care to generate overlapping and synergistic benefits.

LYMA doesn’t pretend to be a multivitamin. It’s something completely different. The LYMA formula includes ingredients that cannot be found in effective doses through food alone to help users who want to increase their health and wellness potential progress to the next level.

The LYMA formula truly meets the highest standards by taking nutrients beyond the capabilities of ‘organic’. These ingredients are powered by the best science to offer outstanding delivery systems, stability and efficacy once ingested. LYMA’s ingredients have up to four times the absorption of generic supplements, meaning the body is able to absorb these nutrients faster and at a deeper cellular level. This is the true definition of a supplement.

A peptide is a string of amino acids bound together. Cynatine®HNS is a patented form of hydrolysed keratin which contains various oligopeptides in addition to cysteine, methionine and serine.

LYMA is a unique formulation, you won’t find anything else like it. You may find other products on the market that adopt one or two patented ingredients and even some products will use one or two that are featured in LYMA, but no other supplement uses as many patented ingredients at active levels. LYMA is in another league to anything on the market, of that we can assure you.

Three of the actives (KSM-66®Ashwagandha, affron® and Cognizin®) may enhance aspects of brain function in a way that is designed to improve sleep onset and quality.

affron® a standardized extract from crocus sativa, has been shown to alleviate low mood states and anxiety. It is thought to do so by enhancing resilience, or the ability to deal with adversity. This behavioural component is located in the hypothalamus and more specifically the VTA. Resilience appears to be an active brain state linked to specific genes being switched on and specific ion channels being activated in the VTA, and the actives in affron® are believed to act on these genes, ion channels and neurons. Wellmune® Blend and KSM66® Ashwagandha play supporting roles here too.

KSM66® Ashwagandha, an extensively trialled and highly purified form of Ashwagandha, is a xeno-hormetic that has been used for centuries in India to reduce stress and achieve harmony and balance. It works in parallel with affron® and HydroCurc®, via an up-regulation of a series of stress-responsive proteins called alarmins, include both HSP’s and sestrins. In this way it provides additional improvements in mental function, which are further enhanced by Cognizin®, another of the validated actives in the LYMA formulation.

The LYMA formula contains Lycored Lycopene™ which is an ultra-powerful, highly bioavailable carotenoid. This revolutionary ingredient has well documented cardiovascular health benefits and research suggests it can help in reducing DNA damage, one of the main drivers of the ageing process. Clinical studies with Lycored Lycopene™ have shown a 50% reduction in lymphocyte DNA damage and 6% reduction in blood pressure. (the same as drug intervention in this study).

Reducing inflammation is a key objective to achieve optimal health and wellbeing. The LYMA formula includes turmeric (curcumin) which has been extensively studied for its anti-inflammatory properties. LYMA features the revolutionary ingredient HydroCurc® which is the world’s most bioavailable form of curcumin. This well-researched, patented ingredient is four times more potent than generic turmeric, providing 90% curcuminoids and 230% improved bioavailability compared to generic curcumin supplements.

Cognizin® (cytidine 5′-diphosphocholine), is an endogenous nucleotide naturally found in the body where it is an essential intermediate in the synthesis of the major phospholipid of the cell membranes, phosphatidylcholine. This constitutes a pool for the synthesis of acetyl choline, one of the brain’s main neurotransmitters. There is also evidence of antioxidant activity and a stimulatory effect on the release of dopamine neurotransmitters in the brain; a series of actions which have earned citicoline a role in the enhancement of memory. The KSM-66®Ashwagandha and affron® work here too, via stress reduction and generally improved well-being. Wellmune® Blend has been shown in multiple studies to improve Profile of Mood States score.

Ingredients in the LYMA formula support bone health, age related bone degeneration and may reduce the risk of osteoporosis. If you are taking medication for osteoporosis, you should discuss this with your doctor before taking LYMA. Lycored Lycopene™ is proven to support bone health by improving resistance to DNA damage. Vitamin D3 at a daily dosage level of 2000 i.u. has been shown to reduce risk of osteoporosis by 37%. K2Vital®Delta has been proven to reduce hip fracture risk by 80% and also support in age related bone mineral decline.

LYMA will offer optimum support during periods of stress. If you are taking prescribed hormone therapy, it’s advisable to discuss with your doctor.

Wellmune® Blend, a standardised and validated 1-3, 1-6 beta glucan, acts in harness with HydroCurc® via immunomodulation. Replacing the 1-3, 1-6 beta glucans which have been progressively removed from our food chain over the last half century, these natural compounds act at receptor sites on our immune cells and improve innate immune cellular function. This in turn improves resistance to infection and reduces the tendency to allergy via inter alia lowering the TH2/TH2 ratio.

The xeno-hormetic action of KSM-66®Ashwagandha and the mood-elevating impact of affron® provide additional protection, by reducing the immuno-suppressive effects of stress.

Last but not least, K2Vital®Delta and Vita-Algae D3 is a potent combination for bone, heart and immune health, and the actives we use have been shown to enhance bone and vascular physiology, and a range of immune functions.

If you follow the links in our ingredients’ section, you can make an unbiased view for yourselves.

The combination of Wellmune® Blend, affron® and KSM-66® Ashwagandha reduces mental and physiological stress, resulting in increased vigour and energy.

Peer-reviewed clinical studies have demonstrated 88% harder nails & less nail breakage & 100% nail colour recovery in women aged between 40 and 71 over 90 days.

Peer-reviewed clinical studies have demonstrated 47% increase in hair strength & 35% decrease in hair loss in women aged between 40 and 71 over 90 days.

Peer-reviewed clinical studies have demonstrated 80% improvement in skin smoothness, 30% increase in skin moisture, 17% increase in skin elasticity, 12% reduction in wrinkle depth in women aged between 40 and 71 over 90 days.

The sum of our ingredients working in harmony are LYMA’s greatest contributor to beauty.

LYMA includes Cynatine® HNS which is the most exciting ingredient in the world of nutricosmetics. With a growing evidence base behind it, Cynatine® HNS is increasingly recognised as a genuine cosmeceutical with enormous potential in aesthetic improvement, comprised of a 96% soluble, stable and bioavailable keratin. Originally a protein found naturally in structures such as hair, skin and nails, clinical studies in women aged 40+ have demonstrated an increase in skin elasticity and moisture content resulting in improved appearance. Hair strands are structurally strengthened, hair loss is reduced and resulting hair appears thicker. Nails appear significantly stronger with full colour recovery. Cynatine® HNS is clinically proven to be effective at a dosage of 500mg a day. This is future beauty.

LycoRed Lycopene contains standardised lycopene, a powerful antioxidant thought to protect cells in many parts of the body from oxidative damage and protect against many serious health conditions. Among its many benefits are improved skin appearance, and protection against UV-damage and skin ageing. It also up-regulates Connexin-43, a vitally important health-protective mechanism. HydroCurc®’s ability to reduce inflammatory stress adds to overall skin improvement.

The LYMA formula contains no allergens.
