TESTED. PROVEN.

WE PUT CRYSTAL TOMATO® SUPPLEMENTS TO THE TEST

A clinical trial* on Melasma and Crystal Tomato® Skin Clarity Cream and Crystal Tomato® supplements was conducted between October, 2013 and May, 2014. The randomized double-blind study conducted at National Skin Centre, Singapore involved 44 patients with Melasma prototype III and IV.

This trial is significant in that the supplement that is used in the trial is the same product that our consumers will be consuming, and is a departure from the common practice of highlighting the benefits of certain ingredients based on widely available
test reports.

Few, if any, skin supplements are proven effective by clinical trial in this way.


* Results and conclusions of the trial was accepted and published in the leading American scientific journal, Journal of Pigmentary Disorders, in December 2014.

After 56 days, 76.5% of the group who were given Crystal Tomato® supplements to complement the use of Crystal Tomato® Skin Clarity Cream had their mMASI score index reduced by more than 25% compared to 68.4% of who were given only placebo as a supplement.


After 84 days, the reduction was more than 50% in 53% of the group that also received Crystal Tomato® supplements vs. only 31.6% of the group that had received placebo supplements.

BETTER SKIN FROM WITHIN

Crystal Tomato® Carotenoids have been found to go straight to the skin, making it an efficient skin supplement. From the Clinical Trial, specific skin improvements after consumption of Crystal Tomato® supplements for 84 days were also recorded:

  • Decrease in skin dryness
  • Decrease in skin roughness
  • Increase in skin suppleness
  • Improvement in skin tone
  • Improvement in skin texture

HIGHEST BIOAVAILABILITY

Many dietary carotenoids, both with and without pro-vitamin A activity, are found distributed throughout human tissues including the serum, plasma and skin. But compared to other carotenoids, Crystal Tomato® Carotenoids have the highest accumulation factor in the skin (Hata TR, et al. 2000. Non-invasive raman spectroscopic detection of carotenoids in human skin.. Journal of Investigative Dermatology.115(3):441-8).

BETTER STABILITY

This high distribution factor is an indication of the better stability of Crystal Tomato® Carotenoids in the skin.

NATURAL AND SAFE

Crystal Tomato® Carotenoids are the result of a decade of research and development. A unique breed of non-genetically modified white tomatoes were specially cultivated for use in the supplement.

As it is 100% natural food supplement, Crystal Tomato® is safe for daily use over a long term.

ADDED BENEFITS

To increase the efficacy of Crystal Tomato®, an amino acid L-Cysteine is included. Existing naturally in proteins of most living organisms, it is one of the few amino acids containing sulphur.

The sulphur allows L-Cysteine to bond in a special way to maintain the structure of proteins in the body and this helps in the formation of collagen, promoting healthy skin.

BOOSTING GLUTATHIONE PRODUCTION

L-Cysteine also helps to boost the liver’s production of Glutathione, commonly referred to as the body’s master anti-oxidant, to maintain skin health. Without Glutathione, cells will die at a faster rate, leading to quicker ageing.

Although Gluthathione is commonly found in oral supplements, it is not absorbed when taken orally and has no effect on the skin*. By including L-Cysteine, a natural precursor of Glutathione in Crystal Tomato®, the natural mechanisms in the body are activated to produce its own Glutathione to improve the appearance of the skin**.

F.A.Q.

WHAT IS CRYSTAL TOMATO® DIETARY SUPPLEMENT?
Crystal Tomato® Dietary Supplement is a Natural Food made from a special varietal of 100% natural Non-Genetically-Modified Tomato and is Preservative-Free.

WHAT IS THE KEY ACTIVE INGREDIENT IN CRYSTAL TOMATO® DIETARY SUPPLEMENT?
Crystal Tomato® Carotenoid is the key active ingredient in Crystal Tomato® Dietary Supplement.

WHAT ARE CAROTENOIDS AND HOW DO THEY BENEFIT THE SKIN?
Carotenoids are a class of natural substances (naturally occurring pigments synthesized by plants, algae, and photosynthetic bacteria). The primary function of carotenoids is Anti-Oxidant.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CRYSTAL TOMATO® CAROTENOIDS AND CAROTENOIDS?
There are many Carotenoids and they are mainly colored. The more commonly known ones are Beta Carotene (orange colored, high presence in carrots) and Lycopene (bright red colored, high presence in common tomatoes).

Crystal Tomato® Carotenoids are without colour. Colorless substances do not absorb in the visible light spectrum, they absorb at lower wavelength (i.e. UV) or higher wavelength (i.e. Infra-Red or IR).

HOW MANY TOMATOES WORTH OF CRYSTAL TOMATO® CAROTENOIDS ARE IN EACH CAPLET?
Due to the high concentration of Crystal Tomato® Carotenoids, each pill corresponds to 3 fresh crystal tomatoes.

IS CRYSTAL TOMATO® CULTIVATED SPECIFICALLY FOR ITS SKIN LIGHTENING PROPERTIES?
Yes. Crystal Tomato® corresponds to a special varietal of tomato which is cultivated specifically for this purpose only. Such type of tomato does not exist anywhere else.

WOULD CONSUMING REGULAR COLORED CAROTENOIDS (I.E. BETACAROTENE/LYCOPENE), GIVE THE SAME LIGHTENING EFFECT AS CONSUMING CRYSTAL TOMATO®?
Consuming colored carotenoids in large amount will affect the color of the skin. In particular, beta carotene taken in large amount over a long period would give skin an orange tint. Consuming regular tomatoes also do not protect against UV and do not have skin whitening functions as they only contain colored carotenoids.

HOW MUCH AND HOW LONG DOES ONE HAVE TO TAKE THIS SUPPLEMENT TO GET THE BENEFITS?
Recommended intake for Crystal Tomato® is just One Caplet A Day but there is no harm in taking more. In view that the skin is a large organ and the benefits are delivered ‘head to toe’, 2 to 3 months for visible radiance and lightening effects should be expected.

However, many patients have provided feedback that benefits of Radiance and Lightening were visible from as soon as just 3 weeks of 1-a-day consumption dosage. Clinical Tests have shown that after 56 days, 76.5% of patients showed a remarkable improvement of more than 25% in modified Melasma Area Severity Index (mMASI) scores. (Study on Melasma, National Skin Centre, October 2013 to May 2014.)

WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS FROM TAKING CRYSTAL TOMATO®?
Crystal Tomato® Dietary Supplement is a Natural Food consisting of natural tomatoes and L-cysteine (amino acids present in our body) which is a US FDA approved food additive.

There are no known side effects unless one is allergic to tomatoes.

HOW SAFE IS CRYSTAL TOMATO®?
Crystal Tomato® supplement is as safe to consume as a tomato. It is made from a rare breed of 100% natural, non-GMO tomato.

CAN WOMEN PREPARING FOR PREGNANCY, PREGNANT WOMEN & BREAST FEEDING MOTHERS, CONSUME CRYSTAL TOMATO®?
Crystal Tomato® being a Natural Food is suitable and safe for all – with the exception of people who are allergic to tomatoes or have been advised by their physicians not to take tomatoes for any reason.

HOW LONG DOES ONE CONTINUE TAKING CRYSTAL TOMATO® AND WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN ONE STOPS CONSUMING IT? WILL THE COLOR OF THE SKIN DARKEN AND THE CONDITION OF THE SKIN WORSEN?
As Crystal Tomato® is a Natural Food, it can be consumed continuously. Like with any food or other safe product, the results are reversible – when one stops consuming the supplement, the skin will progressively revert to its original form. It will not worsen but it will lose the benefits derived from consuming this supplement.

IS CRYSTAL TOMATO® SUITABLE FOR VEGETARIANS?
Yes. Crystal Tomato® Dietary Supplement is suitable for Vegetarians as well as for Vegans.

TOMATOES ARE KNOWN TO BE HIGH IN ACIDS. WOULD THE CONSUMPTION OF CRYSTAL TOMATO® CAUSE UNDESIRABLE REACTIONS FOR SUFFERERS FROM ACID REFLUX, GASTRIC ULCERS, HEARTBURN?
Acids are water-soluble. Crystal Tomato® Dietary Supplement is made from natural tomatoes that have been freeze dried into powder. No chemical is added. When the water is removed, the acids are also removed.

WHY IS L-CYSTEINE, ANOTHER ACTIVE INGREDIENT IN CRYSTAL TOMATO® ADDED?
L-Cysteine has been added to the formula as it transforms into glutathione in our body. Glutathione converts dark brown melanin to pink melanin. However, glutathione – taken either orally or applied topically – is not absorbed by the body. Only L-Cysteine transformed glutathione will be absorbed.

ARE THERE ANY CLINICAL TRIAL RESULTS TO SHOW UV PROTECTION OF THE SKIN FROM ORAL USE OF CRYSTAL TOMATO® CAROTENOIDS?
Clinical Tests have shown that after 56 days, 76.5% of patients showed a remarkable improvement of more than 25% in modified Melasma Area Severity Index (mMASI) scores. (Study on Melasma, National Skin Centre, October 2013 to May 2014.)

CAN CRYSTAL TOMATO REPLACE THE USE OF TOPICAL SUNBLOCK?
It is necessary to continue with the use of topical sunblock. Crystal Tomato® provides some protection but it is not sufficient to completely protect against direct sun exposure.

WHEN SHOULD ONE TAKE CRYSTAL TOMATO®? MORNING OR NIGHT, BEFORE OR AFTER FOOD?
Taking Crystal Tomato® is like eating any fresh tomatoes and can be taken anytime, day or night, before food or after food. It is recommended to take daily at a regular time (i.e. if a pill is taken in the morning on the 1st day, try to follow the same sequence the following days).
