Sustainable Youth® Technologies researches, develops, markets and licenses evidence-based organic, natural and green nutricosmetic, cosmeceutical and nutraceutical products formulated to sustain beauty, youth and vitality from the inside out. The first line of Immune Performance™ products in our Sustainable Youth® brand is concrete evidence of this philosophy. The proprietary products are based on the company’s clinically-validated organic active compound, Alasta™, and are unprecedented in their anti-aging benefits through immune performance™. All natural, and supported by three patents, these products offer consumers unparalleled visible results in as little as 4 weeks*. With proven results in independent clinical trials and consumer case studies, we believe no other product line formulated with 100% natural, organic and green ingredients offers our benefits.
*individual results may vary.
I was fortunate to receive the following Sustainable Youth products: Immune Performance™ Elastifirm™ Supplement with Alasta™ 60 capsules (ARV $65.00), Immune Performance™ Revitalizing Serum with Alasta™ (ARV $80.00), and the Immune Performance™ Elasticity Cream with Alasta™ (ARV $80.00).I love that the products are full of organic ingredients and they don’t have a strong fragrance (I don’t like using products with an overwhelming fragrance—it just seems to linger!). The Revitalizing Serum and Elasticity Cream were both light and easy to apply, and they didn’t leave any oily or greasy feeling on my skin. I only applied the products to one side of my face, particularly near my eye and lip area, so I could compare each side of my face after the 4 weeks (for best results you should use the Revitalizing Serum first and then the Elasticity Cream).
Unfortunately, I have not yet used the products for 4 full consecutive weeks. There was a period where I was sick for over 2 ½ weeks, and I’m simply just a very busy mom who is getting more and more forgetful each day, so I wasn’t able to integrate the skin care regimen into my daily routine. However, I recently started the regimen up again a couple of weeks ago.
Although the website states some people noticed a difference after 2 weeks, and some even after 1 week, I really can't tell a difference so far. This could be due to several reasons—perhaps I'm one of those people who have to try it out for the 4 full weeks to get visible results, or maybe there is a difference and I just don’t notice it.
I will be doing a follow up post after the four weeks have passed to share the results, which I'm quite excited to see, especially after reading the testimonials.
Also, I have not yet tried the Supplements, since my doctor said to not take any additional supplements while I’m on prenatal vitamins, since I’m nursing my son. However, I do plan on taking them once I'm done nursing, and I’ll provide another update on the Sustainable Youth Supplements as well.
In the meantime, to find out more about Sustainable Youth and Alasta, visit the Sustainable Youth website.
The Sustainable Youth products are pricey, but they offer a 100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEE, so if you’re looking to tighten your skin and get it glowing, what have you got to lose (other than free radical damage and inflammation)?
Shop: You can purchase Sustainable Youth products on the Sustainable Youth website.
Win: One lucky winner will receive Sustainable Youth’s Immune Performance™ Revitalizing Serum with Alasta™ and Immune Performance™ Elasticity Cream with Alasta™ (ARV $160).

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF SUSTAINABLE YOUTH® PRODUCTS?
Sustainable Youth® products offer consumers a simple, “inside-out” beauty regimen that produces visible results in as little as 4 weeks of use. With proven results in independent clinical trials and consumer case studies, no other product line formulated with 100% natural, organic and green ingredients offers our benefits which includes increased skin elasticity and firmness through its ability to help boost machrophage activation, the immune system's first line of defense. Our customers have noticed smoother, toner skin; a dramatic reduction in wrinkles; and a lifted appearance.

I found that Alasta is derived from Aloe Vera which is important for wound healing and collagen production. This is a great benefit for the skin.
I'd really enjoy a product that lifts and provides a more youthful appearance. According to the site, "consumer case studies indicates that our products help increase elastin production and reduce elastin cross-linking."

Alasta contains Aloeride which research has shown can be a potent immune-stimulatory ingredient that stimulates macrophage activation (Macrophage function is important for wound healing and collagen production).

My skin could use some pampering.
i like the all natural ingredients.
Interesting:
Alasta™ appears to affect the performance of certain immune cells which results in less inflammation. Less inflammation results in less oxidative stress, fewer free radical reactions, and less collagen cross-linking, resulting in increased elasticity and firmness.
Firmness and elasticity without irritation is something I could really use.

In placebo-controlled and double-blind studies conducted by an independent laboratory, Alasta™ has been clinically proven to help improve skin elasticity and firmness up to 61 percent in only 12 weeks of use when taken orally and up to 72 percent in only 8 weeks of use when used topically. These results are statistically significant, and the placebo group did not show a significant improvement.
Though its precise pathway has not been charted, based on clinical testing, it is clear that a positive, supportive relationship exists between the use of Alasta™ and the ability to help reduce overall inflammation in the body to help sustain the quality and appearance of youth.
This is interesting:
Orally or topically, Alasta™ appears to stimulate cells in a way that results in a reduction of inflammation and an increase in elasticity. Less inflammation can result in less oxidative stress and free radical reactions and, therefore, less collagen cross-linking and breakdown, resulting in increased elasticity and firmness.

Sustainable Youth is the most unique skin care system I have learned about in a long time. What I find most interesting and intriguing is that there is the unique "Alasta™ in the products, a propriety blend containing Aloeride®, which research has shown can be a potent immune-stimulatory ingredient (derived from Aloe Vera) that stimulates macrophage activation. (Macrophage function is important for wound healing and collagen production.) The inclusion of Alasta™ in our Immune Performance™ products has been shown to provide visible results in a matter of weeks. Though its precise pathway has not been charted, clinical testing demonstrates a positive, supportive relationship exists between the oral and topical use of Alasta™ and the ability to reduce overall inflammation in the body and sustain a more youthful appearance of the skin"

Would be amazing if true.

topical application for skin elasticity
In the placebo-controlled, double-blind study, 100% of subjects demonstrated up to 72% improvement in skin elasticity over baseline. The results were statistically significant and the placebo group showed no significant improvement.
