The detail on Kigafirm – GLY
from ZUPLEX
Kigafirm-GLY is a targeted Kigelia africana fruit extract obtained from a selective hydro-glycolic extraction process. The extract has equivalent activity to propanediol based extracts.
Kigafirm is a targeted extract of Kigelia africana fruit that maximises firming and anti-inflammatory activity. The large tree occurs throughout Africa and produces greyish-brown sausage-shaped fruits that grow up to 60 cm long and weigh up to 7 kg.
Several publications in the academic literature have shown that extracts of Kigelia show anti-inflammatory activity with low toxicity. The skin firming capacity of the extract has been shown in independent trials. Kigafirm is targeted at the skin firming and anti-inflammatory potential of this plant. Kigelia africana contains verminoside that confers anti-inflammatory activity and anti-nociceptive activity with very low toxicity (LD50 or 1.3 g/kg). Verminoside has been shown to inhibit enzymes involved in inflammation by up to 83% at very low concentrations.
