MEDA’s GLOW drink has delicate and nutritious ingredients from nature, including Aloe

and nourish your skin from within. Read on to delve a little deeper into each of the
wonderful ingredients that have been chosen.

Aloe Vera:
The wonderful Aloe Vera plant has been used as a method for supporting digestion,
skincare, bathing and other health benefits for centuries. Due to Aloe Vera being a source of
Vitamin E, C and Beta Carotene, it may help to strengthen and nourish the skin. Aloe Vera is
also effective for sun-damaged skin or wounds, and when used topically may help to relieve
and recover sun damage. (2)

Elderflower:
Elderflower has a long history of being used in German medicine. Due to its rich Vitamin C
and antioxidant properties, it may help with premature aging, in addition to supporting the
regeneration and repair of cells by protecting your body from oxidative stress. (3)

Olive Leaf:
Every part of the olive is packed with vitamins, nutrients and antioxidants that provide
nourishment for our health. Olive leaves have the highest antioxidant concentration of all
parts of the olive tree, thanks to the combined power of flavonoids, phenols and oleuropein.

Vitamin C:
Vitamin C is an essential vitamin, meaning that our bodies cannot actually produce it, and
therefore we must rely on our dietary intake of vitamin C rich foods and drinks.
Vitamin C is transported to the skin, where it acts as an antioxidant and helps to strengthen
the skin’s barriers (4). In addition, Vitamin C plays a role in collagen production, a vital
protein that helps with skin structure.

Biotin:
Also known as Vitamin H, Biotin is a B complex vitamin that assists with converting food into
energy. Enzymes rely on Biotin to function, therefore it is so important for energy
production and helps the formation of fatty acids that may contribute to our skin health and
glow. (6)

CBD:
Evidence has shown that CBD may be beneficial for skin health and treating a variety of
skin conditions. Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, CBD may help with conditions such
as acne, eczema and psoriasis. (1)
