Skin-Care Efficacy of Fibroin
1. It has natural moisturizing and skin-nourishing effects.
2. It has the function of inhibiting melanin production.
3. It can promote the regeneration of skin tissue and prevent skin chapping and chemical damage.
4. It has the effect of inhibiting skin cancer.
5. Silk protein also has antioxidant properties.
Hair-Care Efficacy of Fibroin
The hair-care efficacy of silk protein depends on its absorbability, absorption rate, film-forming ability and moisturizing properties when absorbed by hair. Compared with other protein hydrolysates (such as collagen, bone collagen and gelatin), the most prominent feature of fibroin is that it is easily absorbed by hair.
Nutritional Efficacy of Fibroin-Containing Food
1.Nutritional Advantages: Silk protein contains 18 types of amino acids, over 90% of which can be absorbed by the human body. The proportion of essential amino acids in it exceeds 17%, which is higher than that in ordinary food. Therefore, adding fibroin to food is an excellent way to supplement amino acids.
2.Application Cases: As early as 1983, Japan began to research the conversion of silk into food. At present, a variety of silk-containing foods have been developed, including silk cakes, biscuits, noodles, soba noodles, jelly, ice cream, candies, porridge, drinks and soy products.
