CAVIAR AND ITS PROTEINS
Maintaining hydrated and supple skin requires an adequate supply of essential proteins and molecules. These include hyaluronic acid, urea, elastin, and collagen, all naturally occurring in the body. With aging and sun exposure, the amount of these substances decreases, contributing to the skin aging process and dryness. These proteins and molecules play a crucial role in regulating skin hydration, elasticity, and firmness, highlighting their importance in maintaining healthy skin.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION +
Caviar, much more than a luxurious delicacy reserved for special occasions, also offers benefits for delicate facial skin. These small sturgeon eggs are rich in several essential nutrients, including omega-3, polyunsaturated fats that are beneficial for cardiovascular health despite their high cholesterol content (440 mg/100 g). In addition to being an excellent source of protein (26 g/100 g), caviar also supplements vitamin D intake, essential for calcium fixation and therefore for bone health.
The term "caviar" has a controversial origin, possibly coming from the ancient Greek "avyron" meaning "egg" or the Turkish "Khäviar" meaning "fish eggs." Sturgeons were known and appreciated since ancient times by various civilizations such as the Phoenicians, Egyptians, and Romans. The Persians were among the first to consume these fish eggs, and caviar then followed trade routes to Central Europe before gaining renown in Russia, where the Tsars contributed to its prestige. In France, in Paris, during the Roaring Twenties (1920-1929), caviar attained the status of a noble delicacy par excellence.

Caviar Biotec stands out in the field of cosmetic and nutraceutical ingredients by offering a diverse range of ready-to-formulate caviar extracts, including animal-derived, biomimetic and cell-cultured variants.

PROTEINS & AMINO ACIDS
HECTYL INFORMS YOU
An amino acid is an organic molecule that serves as the building block of proteins. Essential amino acids cannot be synthesized by the body and must be obtained through diet, while non-essential amino acids can be produced by the body from other compounds.
All proteins are made up of the same 20 standard amino acids. However, the sequence and proportion of these amino acids vary, giving each protein a unique structure and function.

The exceptional caviar
Caviar is a unique protein source due to its amino acid composition, including a high proportion of essential amino acids. Caviar proteins are high-quality, easily digestible, and highly bioavailable, allowing for efficient absorption and utilization by the body.
