A study investigated the ability of NKG Kefir to protect cells from ultraviolet (UV) light-induced oxidative stress, focusing on its effect on reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels immediately after exposure.
Study Design
-Cells were exposed to ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, a known cause of cellular damage through the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
-Prior to UV exposure, only the lower experimental group received NKG Kefir treatment.
-ROS levels were measured immediately, and then at 5 minutes and 10 minutes post-irradiation.
Key Findings
-In the NKG Kefir-treated group, the concentration of reactive oxygen species (ROS) decreased progressively over time after UV exposure.
-In contrast, cells not treated with kefir maintained elevated ROS levels, indicating greater oxidative stress and slower recovery.
-This suggests that NKG Kefir contributes to rapid cellular recovery by actively reducing oxidative damage after UV insult.
Conclusion
These results demonstrate that NKG Kefir possesses antioxidant properties that help repair and recover cells from UV-induced damage. By lowering ROS levels after irradiation, it may protect against oxidative stress-related aging, inflammation, and skin damage.
This positions NKG Kefir not only as a gut and immune health food, but also as a potential anti-aging and skin-supportive functional ingredient, especially valuable in environments with frequent UV exposure.
